That's what I thought at first, but then edited my post when I saw the lower coolant line & thought it would pretty much fill the valley causing the oil to run elsewhere

As for the baffles preventing a full drain, it is better than the stock pan for sure. Take a look at the pictures we posted of the factory oil pan and you can clearly see all the places where oil will not be able to drain from. The floor of our oil pan is flat in comparison and only a very small amount of residue will remain when you do an oil change compared to the factory pan.

I was sure you had some clearance in there somewhere, but it just looked tight looking at the pan & baffles alone. I am new to this platform & I really appreciate the illistrations

That crank is really stuffed up there.
