Anyone Ever Check The Pan for Volume?? pics included

This is how I did my pan. Cut the bottom off the sump, and then weld in a strip of sheet steel about 2 inch wide. Instant 2 inch dropped sump. Extend the pickup to the bottom, and run 1 qt low on the stick. Top off with a windage tray. My next motor will also have a dual crank scrapper.

well 2" on my pan would only give me 4 total in the sump... better but i was hoping for more like yours... what is the pan number on yours?? seems like yours is bigger to begine with...
