Windage duplicity

[Todd Phenneger]

Actually thats entirely true.
  The Baffling of the Pan is to keep the oil from pooling on one
side of the pan and starving the pump.  The Windage tray is to
keep the oil down in the pan.  In the I5 ir a V8 the oil will
crawl up the cyl walls under hard cornering.  The windage tray
keeps it down in the tray.   The ur-S4 has both the Windage Tray
and Oil Pan Baffling which together to a wonderful job of
keeping the oil where it belongs.
  And Yes, the ur-S4 unit will fit the 5ktq/4kq/urq/200 pans.
