Thread: Full length oil pan on the street???

Tweet

Nice looking pan, I like the design of that long louvered trap..... I can see where the guys like it. Don't think I'd take it on a twisty turny road at a high rate of speed, but for most anything else I'd use it....

Possibly the reason for adding two quarts when drag racing is that under hard acceleration the oil could climb up the back of the pan and let the pickup draw some air....

Thanks John! didn't mean to forget you when I last said "Thank You" to everyone that had replyed! What do you think of the pan I was referring to after seeing the picture???

Thanks Dave, So do you think it'd be ok to use it in my '32 Ford. As my front tires are 3 1/2" wide I don't do ANY fast driving around corners! So it makes sense that the 'street' race pan is the same as the 'race' race pan??? Just add oil for racing??? Doesn't it seem like that would increase friction???

Thanks again guys! Bill
