Another thing I plan to add to the production pan is a recess in the flange for pounding in a pry tool for removal without banging up visible surfaces. I also thought about possible a threaded hole or two to threads bolts into that push on the upper pan to ease later separation.

Yes, I would like that. I also like the idea of at least 2 pry points to get the pan off if needed without damaging it.

Far as supporting mods go, Is this pan more for people who intend to track their Z's at anything above 7,500 rpms?

this pan prevents oil starvation in sustained hi g turns on the track. It helps lower the chance your engine goes boom. It also prevents oil sloshing to and fro as you zip thru the shorter back to back turns.

Tail of the Dragon......at 7,000rpms. While your passenger does this and you don't want to do that because the motor went pop.

Damn you Charles. Every time I think I've gotten the built motor fund needs figured out you go and release something else I 'need'

Charles did you ever determine the increase in oil capacity of the new pan. I'd be interested in one but I'm running the Wolf pan spacer. I don't want to loose too much oil capacity by going to this pan.

Not yet, I still have to find someone local with a pan. There is a shop about a hour away that probably has one but I havent had time to get up there yet. If the spacer doesnt put your pan past the crossmember, you wont lose anything. Even at the same depth this pan will hold more due to its straight walls to the floor opposed to large radius.

Phunk, will the options be determined upon deposit. I would like the 2 drains with plugs, and are you still planning on the pry points for removal? Would prefer this over pressing a bolt into the mating surface to release the pan.

Options can be determined at any point up until production. Yes there will be 1 or 2 pry points added.
