Atttached is the pan with central sump that has baffle plates front and rear to keep oil from sliding out of the sump during accel/deaccel/turning. The motor was set on the pan and the middle is a little pushed up. 8438656-1amaxpan.jpg (145 downloads)

Oil starvation is a potential problem. it's a stock 63 pan, modifying that would be a no-no. and he is going to use it. this will be a street car and will not see much high rpm usage, so that pan will work for what he is after.
