Winner's Circle at www.spridget.com sells a couple of different types of
racing oil pans. Click on Get Catalog, then look on Page 8. I use the
"competition" pan as opposed to the "super" pan. The competition has a
trap door in one half to keep the oil from surging forward under braking,
and "wings" on either side to increase capacity and to keep the oil
around the pickup. Seems to work very well, the guy that recommended it
to me has been racing Spridgets for decades. I forget what I paid for
it, you'll have to call Winner's Circle to get pricing.
