| Email me when you get a chance. I am in NorthRidge California and heading towards Costa Mesa. I am doing a test fitting on a TT block today. If you were in the area, you are more than welcome to come by a take a sneak peak. The idea of increasing the oil pan volume was an interest of mine years ago when I was under the car looking on how I would do it. I believe the Supra motor has a 6 quart pan stock. I felt the stock volume seem rather small for a 3.0 liter engine for our cars. There are 2 liter engines with less HP that have larger oil pans. The SZ pan motivated me to come up with my own design. Volume and internal baffling for oil pans go hand in hand, especially on a high performance cars. This also the case with fuel tank designs as well. You don't want to suck air for oil pick up or fuel pick up during spirited driving. If you look inside the z32 fuel tank you will see the pick point baffled as well. I have a drive ahead of me and then off to Arizona today. Email me when you get a chance. I will answer the rest of your questions for the internals of the pan. Thanks, Mike
