I learned that the 2000 and newer models have a deeper oil pan to help with starvation on the track. Is this worthy or does it make sense to get a baffled pan with trap doors? Where do you get one?

Hi guys,
I wouldn't consider myself an expert in this area, but I did ask the same question of Archer Racing at the ViperDays Nationals in Texas about a month ago. I wasa told that they would swap your stock oil pan plus some cash for one that they had modified with the "trap doors". If you are going to be serious about racing and beef up the brakes and tires, you will be pulling more G - forces and be happy with any extra protection for you engine. I didn't find the oil pan listed when I just checked their website, but you could always give them a call and ask. Their website is: WWW.archerracing.com - Good luck!

Mopar Performance, CDI, Ted May and likely several more can get you an ACR (2000/1) style pan.
2 people to contact on oil pan modifications, pre or post Y2K, are:
Jerry Scott; click to email jerry scott at: [email][email protected][/email]
and Joe Dozzo; click to e-mail Joe Dozzo at [email][email protected][/email]
well worth considering either's style of the mod.

Here's the pan that I have and it works very well to stop high-g starvation. It's made by K&P Engineering, 303-697-5821. It can be done with either the pre 2000 pan or the 2000 and after pan. I have the 2000 pan which holds 10 quarts and it works very well for me under track conditions. In my opinion, your best bet is to get the 2000 pan, the 2000 gasket and the 2000 windage trey. If you need the part numbers, e-mail me. Here's a picture of the modification to the 2000 pan. K&P will modify your pan, if you send it to him or you can buy it through Woodhouse.

Will the 2000 pan (with mod.s) fit on a Gen 1 engine?
