225 oil pan modifications

kesteb said

I did this to my oil pan 15 years ago: Welcome to kesteb.us After 30,000 miles the engine has significant wear in areas that are usually splash oiled.

This is an F-body pan being modified to fit a '65 Dart.

I guess I'm stupid. Can you explain how having your baffle (very nice, btw) has anything to do with splash lube, since splash is simply drain back from the top hitting the crankshaft. The crank doesn't hit the oil in the sump.
