Seems ok to me, should stop it climbing the walls of the pan, especially seeing as the pan is deep and wide across the front section too.Just a little project im working on

Like a stock pan or this.

Edit: The sikky pan has baffling with trap doors.

Granted, accusumps are kinda band-aids... but they're better than nothing.Last edited by shiboujin; 12-02-2013, 12:49 PM.

I could be a yes, but im still on the edge because of the price. I'll most likely be in once im convinced of the performance / fit of the headers. As the headers and the pan are the real selling points of this kit to me.
I just saw your edit that the pan is baffled with trap doors. That makes me very happy. A dry sump is definitely not in my budget, but a nice baffled pan and a high flow oil pump should cover me. Those header pictures are a nice start. Its hard to tell the clearance for the steering shaft from that angle though. It would be nice to see from the collectors looking forward too. Also what size are the collectors? Are there bullets inside them? How long are the primary tubes?
Thanks!
