12qrt if you can fit it....my 10qrt is border lined and I will be looking to put a kick out in it soon....Been down this road many times, and 12qrt always works. 50% of the issues we have seen with a Hemi after somthing has gone wrong was oil starvation. Most the rest seem to be dropping a valve or over revving it....

Is this a drag only Hemi? If so how fast and what 60 ft. times and which oiling system are you using now?
What problems are you having to make you ask this question?

I was checking out the Milodon road race pan... Stock chassis in my junk. You hear anything good about them Randy? Milodon 31581 is the part.

Everything is new and on the stand so i cant answer any of those questions. Well, maybe one, its gonna be street/strip. laugh2 just trying to spend money once. Mild ft cam, 4.150 stroke, pump gas deal. Stock internal pickup. Dont really want an extrenal oil line because its gonna be cramped enough.

I try to make the pan(I build my own) as big as I
can.. but I ALWAYS run the oil height short to keep
the oil away from the crank... my current SB I built
a 10qt pan and run 7 qts in the pan plus the filter..
I also like to run a remote filter for ease of changing
the filter and the added volume... but thats just me...
and scrapers and a good windage tray help
EDIT
When running any big pan you need trap doors and walls
to keep the oil at the pick up

Just remember oil is your friend. You can live with to much oil but will suffer a horrible death with to little. Dave
