you would hope so, but I wouldn't trust them--the oil pan is pretty damn important and you don't want it to fall apart or leak

I really don't think it would be an improvement over the stock one--I mean if you really need something other than the stock one, get the moroso one...even though it is expensive, they are a trusted company that makes nice quality products.

Good luck anyway.

If u look at the moroso one it has 2 of them in the front. I guess OBX forgot to put the top one. I never understood why moroso has 2 in the front and what is the lower one for?

i installed one on a b20 once and i wound up grinding and welding on it for about 6 hours.first to make it fit,then it leaked out of almost every weld.it cost more to install it than a moroso would have been

Not really, espically that one. possible things that can be wrong:
-Bad welds (they may either leak, or be weak)
-The flapper on the divider may come loose= no fun for engine
-threads can be tapped wrong, may not seal (on drain and oil inlet holes)

it's so hot oil comin off the turbo gets routed down into the circulating oil, not onto the crank. .
