The one he was hoping to use is reportedly the factory baffle used on 16v cars and clips on the oil pump pick up tube.
It looks like there would not be enough clearance to use both the windage tray AND this baffle. As for the oil starvation concern, he is going to be in there replacing the oil pan so figured all it could do was help. this car is used for AutoX and the track so the oil will be moving around. -----Original Message----- From: DocWyte [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, December 03, 2002 10:26 AM To: Hauptmann, Eric; [email protected]; Steve Work (E-mail) Subject: RE: [a2-16v-list] Schrick/Autotech Aluminum Oil Pan Depends on the design of the oil pump baffle.
