Isis/greddy oil pan without baffles

[Jersthecool]

So I just received my isis oil pan which is a copy from a greddy and I'm not sure about installing the baffles. When the one sits downward on the drain plug side it looks like it won't be able to drain out the oil very easily and could take a long time and possibly leave a bunch of old stuff in the pan. Has anyone had any experience with this or has anyone installed one leaving the baffles out all together?

i always wonder about this too..
anybody?

Well I sat it on top to see what it would look like and it's actually angled down towards the drain plug which I never thought of so I think I'm gonna throw the baffles in and hope for the best.

Wow.... I don't even....



The baffles don't "seal" - they just help keep the oil from flowing away from the pickup as quickly. The oil will drain out just fine.

It is my understanding the baffles are so when the car is turning and all the oil wants to go to the outside of the turn so to speak. The 'inside baffle' lets oil in while the 'outside baffle' keeps the oil in. This way your pickup is always getting oil..we all know what no oil means. As far as draining never seemed to be a real issue for me.. Jack up one side higher if you really want.

Edit: you beat me, but I felt like being nice today lol

The last time I dropped my pan (after draining the oil) there was still a good 1/2 a quart sitting in it. I'm going to start dropping the passenger side down when I drain my oil

Once all of your oil has drained out, pour a bottle of oil through the engine.

Then put your drain plug back in and fill your engine up.

Done.

Yes I have always been a fan of this. Few extra bucks for reassurance
