hey guys just copying and pasting this as some of you know my car is sitting out at DESTRUCTION WAREHOUSE getting ready for the drift season getting all done up all fancy and sheet

well basically i wanted a aftermarket large capacity oil pan with slosh guards and this is what my buddy Vinny of DESTRUCTION WAREHOUSE did for me

tell me what you guys think...

So what happens when you want a large capacity oil pan, but nobody makes one for your motor??

just slightly over 2 quarts difference and price would be about 400 for the cutting bending welding with slosh guards and all that with the big capacity and a powered by max magnetic oil drain plugs which are the s***

Have you had to modify the oil pickup in any way due to the new sump design?

I don't think he had to,because the bottom clearance is the same as stock.

He just have to add the new oil capacity to have the right oil level on the oil pickup.

Actually, you'll have the builder get in touch with me so that we can get them approved as a vendor on the forums...

Not trying to be a jackass, but rules are rules.

Thanks.
