You didn't mention what kind of pan you are running. If all you have is
a stamped steel pan, then it could be pretty simple. Perhaps all you
need is a sheet metal "fence" around the pickup welded or brazed into
the bottom of the pan. Make the fence 3-4 inches tall, or as tall as
you can get away with and clear moving parts. It should be considerably
larger than your pump pickup. A few holes in the base of the fence will
allow oil to circulate. Really all you're doing is keeping the oil from
sloshing away for a few seconds. It still needs to circulate. I have
something like this. It works pretty well, but I'm also carrying 7
quarts.
