After following this post and doing some research on windage including watching a couple vids from Engine Masters, I think my plan will be to get the Milodon 30931 pan with appropriate windage try for the 4.500 stroke and possibly a scraper. No fancy pans for me. If getting a scraper becomes to difficult than i simply wont use one. Thanks for posting because i had no plan of using a windage tray with this build before reading this post. Something else i learned with this windage research is there is as much HP to gain with scrapers and trays as there is with running less oil in the pan. Looks to me like some guys have too much oil in the pan. It's not the HP for me, that's a bonus, it's the dropping oil pressure in the shut down that gets me worried. I run a rudimentary scraper and wndage tray on a 4.50 stroke wedge, it still loses around 25 psi shutting down. I have to run a shallow pan, min level and also use an accumulator. We lose about 40psi with the 5.00 stroke wedge, no windage tray or scraper as we didn't have one to fit at the time. It's obviously aerating the oil, the bearings check out OK but I'd still rather it didn't do it at all.
