 put the baffles and what size flow holes? >>

My baffled oil pan is not very fancy.  I added two baffles at two different
levels in the front of a stock oil pan, based on Greg Solow's recommendations.
I anchored them from the windage plate using 1/4" all-thread rods.

I believe that most of my recent reliability has come from the following:

-Using Greg's flat faced oil pump pickup, with the screen on the bottom.
(Pain pulling off the oil pan from underneath the car, but doable.)
-Installing his oil cooler sandwich, and placing the oil cooler in front of
the radiator.
-Connecting the accusump to the center oil galley port.

I know.  There are all sorts of fancy baffled oil sumps out there with trap
doors (which can stick).
