Hi rpm oil starvation

phunk · 02-09-2015, 04:49 PM

LOL I dont really need the pan in my hand, I can just as easily get the bolt pattern and flange off my Z. Its only a nights work of CAD. But I am curious about the hinge system for the baffles. IMHO its very important that it be a reliable system that remains active. If it ever seized up, its going to be bad news by drying out that pickup in short order. Rather than wing it as a first-timer in active oil pan baffling, I would like to at least examine how others have done it first.

Simple 2D billet parts like that are by far the easiest products to get from concept to reality. I dont have enough of those. Do we know for sure nobody else is going to sell that pan? I dont want to step on anyone's toes.

Any more thoughts on when you might have a production oil pan available?
