crank rubs windage tray
« on: February 01, 2006 - 05:07:07 AM »
When I bought the motor 15 years ago I was told it was a 1/4 stroker. This could explain why there is a couple of deep rub marks on my windage tray. It was put on after it was bought. I bring this up because in catalogs for oil pans I have seen it stated as not for stroked motors. For instance all the Mopar milodon pans advertized in Mancini or Summit I forget which. I've also seen stroker windage trays for sale. Now I'm confused. Anybody?
I may be schizophrenic,
but at least I have each other

in a stroker engine the crank has a larger diameter & will swing lower & possibly contact the windage tray so if your engine is a stroker this would explain it , possibly you can bend the tray enough to work or you could order a stroker tray
