Carl: you can find a windage tray here:

Here is what Crank Scrapers claim as benefits:
What are some of the benefits?
B7 Less rotating mass for the engine to accelerate because of the removed oil
B7 Less loss of power because of excessive drag caused by the windage cloud
B7 Helps reduce engine damaging oil-foaming
B7 Helps avoid oil starvation by keeping the oil in the pan during hard
braking and turning as well as during off-road driving
B7 Helps to cool critical engine parts by quickly returning heated oil to the
sump
B7 Helps to prevent the cylinder walls from being overloaded with oil
B7 Can help with fuel efficiency
Modern cars have them as standard. I think I read somewhere that you'll get 3
to 5 HP.
Scraper and baffle are around $250. Add $100 for teflon blades that bed in to
match your spinning bits perfectly.
...it is on my list of 'things to do...'
Cheers,
Brian
