Finished repairing my oil pan (brazed in a new nut and hardened washer for the drain plug) and adding a baffle. I spot brazed it to minimize heat distortion.
I'm not the best fabricator out there, but I'm happy with the way it turned out.
When I was running the car in vintage rally events with the stock motor I would get an oil light flashing on fast left hand corners and under braking. This should cure that problem. I have a crank scraper coming which will help with the left turn problems too - it has trap doors to help stop oil from climbing the right side of the block.
If I still have oil pressure problems I will go to an accusump.
