We have the larger aluminum oil pan on the TR4.  It takes 8 quarts to fill
on an oil change.  The baffle has a flange on it that goes between the pan
and the block.  So we have the pan, a gasket, the baffle flange, another
gasket and then the block.  Sort or a pain to clean it all up on engine
rebuilds and reassemble it all, but it works.

Subject: [Fot] Oil sump baffle

Anyone running a larger capacity aluminum oil sump? Are you using any type
of baffling and if so, how did you attach it?
Thanks,

Tim,
Is this a horizontal crank scraper? If so, I have the same setup on the new oil sump. I'm concerned about loss of oil pressure in corners since there is no vertical baffle.

You really need to box in the oil pump pickup. Easy to do

I put a simple box around the oil pick up and a splash tray in my stock GT6 oil pan. I simply fabricated it out of 20ga sheet metal and tack welded it in.   I've had no problems in 4 years.

It seemed that no matter what I did, my 1147 Spitfire would go no oil in the left-hand turn at Lime Rock Park.  

No amount  of baffling seemed to help. Even the Accusump didn't solve the problem of spun #3 rod bearings. 

The final cure was to sell it.
