SEEN THIS? Oil Pan Spacer Now Available

I looked at this option. But didnt want my oil pan sitting lower. Would have made it lowest part of the car.

/\ oil cooler will go a long way further to addressing overheating issues on track than an extra qt of oil capacity will. Wouldn't hurt to add the spacer though but imo, oil cooler first, then spacer.

Yep. I just went cooler route.

But it would be low and while i dont plan to hit the front something did go under my car and pushed my undertray into the oil cooler fittings (pointed down, getting em turned). Oil spacer would put the pan at the same level.

P.S Mike, you in town this weekend?

Would it be? I trust you but I'd have to look at that. Even if it was, I don't think that would ever be a issue. I'm geeting a oil cooler kit (as soon as it starts to warm up) but not sure if I want a spacer also for I'm worried about the oil coming up to temp being so much oil and not FI yet.
