i thought id post this in here since most of your do track events and at one point or another, you thought about a baffled pan.

my experence with the canton pans have been nothing but bad! i purchased one of their pans about 6 months ago and there was major fitment problems. the 2 problems were:

1. did not clear the rear halfshaft
2. did not clear the block girdle

they have redone the pan and everything fits fine according to them. so i pruchased a new pan and recieve it yesterday and what do you know! it still does not fit. even though they redid it to to clear the girdle and halfshaft, it will not fit with the windage tray!

i spoke with canton this morning and they said the pan was engineered with the use of no windage tray

anyhow, now im stuck with paying to ship the pan back to them to get a refund.

375+shipping makes it close 400 for damn pan that doesnt even fit.

FWIW I installed my moroso rr pan yesterday and it fit like a beaut.

That is so not what I want to hear..... must..... resist buying......

I echo Pooface's concern that you shouldn't lose the windage tray. Did you ask them why they designed a pan that would remove this piece....is there something (technical/beneficial) they know that we don't?


Some places to purchase from:
Google shows it for $214 here, http://propowerperf.com/index....rt=5a

$240 here, http://store.summitracing.com/...earch

 

Ended up costing me $340 CAD tax in at MOPAC, not a bad deal imo.

 

as promised... heres 2 pics of the baffle system before the pan went back in the box.

Search, dummy.

How does it feel when the shoe is on the other foot?

 

Windage tray is #5 in this pic.

 

If you think that's bad, check out what us neon owners have to do for them to fit.

There was even welding splatter on the outside AND inside of the pan.

 

good lord, and this was such a blingin piece.....

Moroso hinges are the same, fwiw.

 

#20-912 Mutli-louvered windage tray designed to mount between a non-girdle engine block and canton oil pan #15-962 to maximize horsepower. Includes oil pan mounting studs and nuts.

 

I noticed that the mugen baffled pan is only like 270 if i remember correctly from King... How does it compare for the folks that have used it ?

 

Great, add the tray and loose the girdle.

*middlefinger*

I had to cut the hell out of that flywheel splashguard thing. Didn't you?

Also, mine leaks, conveniently right under that guard (installer error I'm sure. )
That means my manifold/turbo/downpipe are coming back out, and that also means my radiator is coming back out, and I'm pissed. DAMNIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111

that sux... but you are at 6699 postes as of now

 

Damn. I don't know if they've changed their pan...no info on their site.

I heard the pan requires notching to fit with the Honda transmission braces, as well as cutting/grinding for axle clearance near the alternator.

****.

 

the newer b-series pans bolt up just fine.... you just cant use the windage tray.
