i know, but this goes accross the entire pan and would address the sloshing of oil into the timing cover issue also

how about solving this with a windage tray like VW did?



maybe easier and cheaper than redesigning a whole oil pan

Okay... Noted.

M20 gated oil pan baffle.... Right side of pan.

Any one else see a need or have input on this one?

+1 million

If you track your stock M20 with Rcomps, you will spin a bearing due to oil starvation if youre pushing hard enough imo. I know Im not the only one that has experienced this.

Though I did rebuild the M20, I am now upgrading to a 24v. I would most certainly buy a baffle for the M50 pan. I suggested this to TRM Matt but he believes they arent necessary. I respectfully disagree as I dont ever want to hear that sound ever again.

Something to consider in the design phase. I think the problem is two fold. Certainly cornering forces, but also extreme braking forces, where all the oil is thrown into the timing cover.
