Deev: Modified Oil Pan?

[bishpuppy]

I was reading one of the wonderful posts by deev, he mentioned something in regards to a modified oil pan.

what is the benefit of the modified oil pan and where can i get one?

Moroso and OBX are the only people who make oil pans for the H series. And the h and f oil pans are interchangeable.

First off. If you don't have turbo and a high volume oil pump then you dont need a modified oil pan.

Secondly. Aftermarket oil pans are just for racing. Since they are welded with many pieces if you bottom out and hit the pan in a certain spot the welds will break. Unlike the stock pan that will dent before it break.

I can modify your oil pan so the oil wont splash around. Adding some baffles will help.

meh, they say windage trays and baffling can help hp because the crank can spin more freely.

i have the OBX pan and it has baffles and also a deeper sump. but the fitment is crap and im worried about the welds.

Thanks, I guess once i save up for the h, i can worry about the pan.

I believe the only comments I ever made were regarding a windage tray (which the A6 has stock), or modifications necessary for turbo... tapping for oil feed and return lines.

negatory. It was a thread in regards to why non-honda bash on honda for swapping the motor.

you had an excellent post, but one of those was, most users dont even know about a modified oil pan, so i was like... hm., but is all good.

Thanks Deev --- as always
