[MustangChris]

ah, whats that do?

It holds the broken pieces together when your block fails.

 

[MustangChris]

oh. .. 302s fail on the "webbing" down the center of the block (commonly) right? so that goes on the bottom around the oil pan area so if that happens the two halfs dont seperated and pistons go off into nowhere?

 

[i_love_my_stang]

kinda i guess just need to know which oil pan to use

Waste of money.

If you lose the block, everything is toast. If you lose a rod everything is done.

All a "support" does is keep a pile of mess in one pile of sh1t.

what about a windage tray?

 

[LAFENATU]

Keeps oil off the crank...not necessary for a street car imo but its not too expensive either. I probably wouldn't but that is me.

 

[MustangChris]

id do a windage tray. they are cheep, easy, and effective (at the job they are designed to do.)

I have a stock pan/pump etc. in my 331. I don't think a windage tray is necessary unless you really race it or have very high hp
