windage tray

can someone tell me what a windage tray does and should i use one on this motor.thanks

I would only use the Moroso style oil pan with the section and directional windage style pans. They actually help direct the oil right back to the pan. They also help keep the oil stable in launches and braking. They actually make power on the dyno, and not by adding a ton of clearence between the oil and rotator. A good air pump works very well also. Stay away from any trays that bolt to the main caps. They are junk! They will break and come apart. Seen to many come back cracked that come back in.

thanks Bill i have a cheap pan but it is just like the moroso pan 710-20190 my long block is together and i dont have main studs,so if i should use a windage tray,what do you suggest also you said sumthing about air pump i take it you are talking about a vacuum pump,should i use one of these and what would the results be, thanks Rob

The 20190 I use without any windage tray. Those things really are junk. They flex back and forth and really do nothing. Now the VACUUM pump will keep the air pressure under the cylinders down and really make 5-10 hp according to the stroke of the engine. Also, they will eliminate any oil leaks as long as all fasteners are tight. It will also look cool. I just dyno tested one of those units with the hefty hipped young lady holding it up in a bikini. I think it is a Gozza? Its really nothing but a Ford air pump. Their 1 bracket fits all and it really impressed me. I pulled 14" and it really worked well. So I thing they are around 595.00 verses 795.00 for the Moroso. I am always pushing Moroso, their stuff and their willing to help me has always been top notch. Notch to mention they pay contingency.

National dragster, the # is in the back if not its advertised there all the time. Moroso has the plain set up that can be polished, killllllllllllllererrrrrrrrrr looooooking. You have to remember, Gozza is a ford air pump converted, o.k. piece, but Moroso is all brand new designed just for pulling vacuum. Gozza has a decent pump and works well for the money.
