225 oil pan modifications
I’m currently building a 225 out of a 72 dart. Original engine, bored .030 over, rv cam, heads milled .080. I’m wanting to improve the oiling system after seeing the UTG clip on YouTube about the slant 6 oil sloshing all the way to the back on normal acceleration causing a load on the two rear connecting rods and possibly creating a failure which I don’t know if that’s true but I can it’s a problem. Checked out a few threads so I got some ideas I added a baffle to mine, nothing fancy but also I wanted to add somewhat of a windage tray which I just created and it’s just mocked up right now. I’m just wondering if this will be adequate enough or if anybody has done this before and had good results or advise on this
