Installed Moroso Oil Pan...pics within
Installed the moroso replacement oil pan today....really nicely engineered piece IMHO...
1. Pickup is moved to the back of the oil pan
2. Windage tray now covers the WHOLE rotating assembly
3. The pan is much lighter than the stocker but has a nice thick flange.
New windage tray installed
Windage Tray comparison (stock held up next to installed moroso one
Oil pickup installed
Pan installed

Fireball, when did you purchase the pan? I ask this because a lot of the newer ones have had issues on the flange. Double check where the oil goes in and out (the 2 holes/ports) as mine had some dips in that area. That will cause a oil pressure issue and I sure hate to see you blow up a motor. I took mine to work and had it milled down. The "dips" were like .035" deep.

Yeah, you won't notice it if you're not paying attention, but it was definitely there on mine. .035" isn't much to the eye, but I put a depth gauge on it and sure enough. It's a smooth "dip", not a cut or anything like that. An inverted belly? LOL Can't figure out a way to explain it. Just a heads up for you.
