Yep. Been fascinated by this subject for a while. Would love to be able to "see" inside the pan at rpm. Reher and Morrison ran an engine without a pan on the dyno once and I think they filmed it. Big mess, but great info I'm sure. Would love to see that footage. I think the grump also did this. I do know the grump had a two foot deep pan on his dyno...

It got me in trouble. Once. It was fine while running the 1/8th with 5 quarts, but that long 10,000 rpm plus the last 1/8th killed it.

I install the dipstick and tube before installing the pan. This lets you ck the actual oil level and where you want full to be, that's if you use a dipstick. Then before installing the pan fill it with water to see how many qts. gets you where you want it. My 7qt. brand name pan would have oil up pretty high if I used 7 qts.

On my bracket car I put 5 quarts in the 7 quart pan then trimmed the dip stick tube till the stick read full. That way I knew how much was in there.
