Which Oil Pan Should You Run In Your Subaru Converted Bay Window BUs?

It's always a pleasure watching your videos. Regarding the sump, the design of these are awful since there is no baffles or pipe for the oil mist return channel. This makes the crank vent system malfunction since crankcase pressure enters the return system. I have shortened the oem sump and added a 8mm steel plate on both sides of the sump so that it's almost impossible to hurt the sump. Can share pictures if you are interested. 👍

Interesting, I get the idea and thats interesting, might experiment with this on some upcoming builds.

i went with the outback shortened one, iMy engine mount is the lowest point on mine. I've seen someone catch a rock and lose a chunk out of the aluminum pan and get sidelined for a couple days in the boonies, they had a couple hunters go by and gave them a ride to town to shop for JB weld and oil
