    FYI On DOHC Windage Tray

    Well I had hoped to bolt on a DOHC windage tray for my latest engine build but the shape of the 4X4 oil pan will not allow it to sit down on the pan rail with the tray in place. It only touches on the drivers side where the 4X4 pan has a 45* flat spot before it joins into the sump. It looks as though the tray could be modified with come cutting and welding to make it work.

    Pics? Sounds like a similar problem the 3500 crank scraper has with the 3500 oil pan (and why they aren't in the store). I haven't seen a 4X4 oil pan.

        Ever get these pics? Sounds like your isuzu pan might not be the same as my chevy pan. I havent pulled my pan back off to mock it up but from the looks this thing might fit. Then again I'm prolly 100% wrong and will have to dent up and repaint my oil pan.

          It would be easiest to heat the pan and press it down and let the tray do the work of indenting the pan in the places needed. But you will have to re paint.
