Popular item, lots of positive reviews. Consider this or a pan a must have for boost and racing. Heck even road racing its a sound investment.

I think I'm going to do the autokraft, it doesn't hang any lower then stock and has good baffling. If I need more capacity I'll add an accusump

I had a f body pan with 8L in it, it would drop 20psi over a 1/4 mile, switched to a moroso with the built in oil filter housing, it's perfect now

Can't really go wrong with Improved's $200 baffle insert into the stock pan. You're retaining the OEM pan so you know what it's going to seal like when reinstalled.

I'd like to go with the moroso but it'll cost me ground clearance. The improved racing baffle is an option

I have the MAST pan. No issues with bearing failures and I have a lot of runs on the car.
The 2nd gen Holley wasn't available at the time.
It holds 6 quarts.
The pickup is near the rear.
The pickup was too close to the bottom of the pan so I moved it up.

Just had the pan off an L99 Camaro. Looks decent.
The replacement engine had an LS3 Corvette pan. Looked better. But depends on what will fit your car!
