You mean the one that goes under the motor and acts like an oil pan?

I used to see it in the summit sport compact catalog , try search on http://www.summitracing.com for it .

Moroso is a big company and I don`t think that anyone ever had any problems with their products

Well, except for maybe their oversized oil pans that were fine for dragracing,
but were ill advised for roadracing (due to lateral G loads vs. longitudinal G load issue).

But yeah, I think summit Racing probably carries them.

No worries, sorry about that.
I just wanted to get my point across, and it was important that everyone understood we were talking about the same thing.

They have a new pan for b-series, it's supposed to address the oil starvation issues, has a 5.5 liter capacity, and uses the stock pickup.

someone told me it wasn UNBAFFELED...if so..screw that

either way...there's no real point in gettin one. the only thing that's really cool about them is the removable cam gear cover..but a cut stock one will do the same thing for free.

Ok, hold on. You mean to say that the Moroso oil pan is unbaffled? Because it sure isn't, there have been pics posted of the inside, and it has a pretty nice looking series of trapdoors. As for the removable cam gear cover, that actually sounds pretty nice if you're tuning frequently. I wonder if a stock cover could be modified to work like that...

Yes, that's what I thought. So then you did in fact mean the valve cover was unbaffled...puzzling...

it's the same thing as the waste-ful carbon fiber valve covers...


there's no way i'd want an unbaffled valve cover....course..there's no way i'd want a valve cover that actually cost more money than the one that came on the engine too
