225 oil pan modifications

I did test the pan with water and simulated acceleration with the current design as well as opened up the areas where the welds were and it definitely made a difference even with the small oil slosh baffles so I’m gonna stick with this design. I would of like to extend the windage tray further where the sump was at as well as the front part of the pan but I figure the more problem area is in the back as well as the front I did take pics pics before the mod with the pan on with my phone on a timer and the clearance for the front of the pan to the crank seemed pretty close to where it’ll be tight in that area to put a windage tray in that area as well as I figure with acceleration it would push that oil back quicker idk I might be over thinking that.
First pic is the front of engine the sending is back.

How much simulated oil(water I guess) are you putting in the oil pan when you do your slosh test? Not all 5 quarts will be in the deep part of the sump with the engine running.
I agree that oil moves around in the pan under hard acceleration and turns.
Racers and performance engine designers have been putting fences, one way doors and swinging oil pump pickups to keep the pickup submerged probably as long as racing has been around.
This is one of those deals where about anything done will help. Just keep good clearance for the crankshaft and rods.
