Pulling the oil pan with headers???

[davidf]

So I'd like to have this strictly for the cool factor but have DC headers.
Does the header have to be completely removed or just dropped a bit? Thank you.

I unhooked the header and unmounted the connection to the test pipes and exhaust from it. Should have more than enough room to install the larger pan (I have the ARC hi-cap pan).

how is this an advantage to own? So, does this mean you will be changing your oil less, since you have more of it at any one time? I don't get the $1000 cost of this thing.

*Baffled
*Extra Capacity means greater oil temp stability
*Fins means greater oil temp stability
*Cast aluminum means it's a better heat soak.

However, if this thing is like the ARC, then by no means is it lighter. It's pretty dang heavy! I guess it's good that it keeps the CG so low.
