Hey Ricky- If someone made the "T" pan even wider,..... it could hold 10 qts.
Two problems I had with the Canton.

The dip stick bug and factory tube did not work well. I had to use emery cloth where the tube went into the pan, so it would fit. Even that didn't work to well.

With the windage tray, I cut out a fairly large square for the dip stick to get into the oil. I made sure,...... to cut enough out so their wouldn't be a problem. I'm always checking the level, kinda ANAL....about that. The last time I checked, I carefully inserted the stick, and it broke off ! Don't know why. I pulled the pan and did not see where or how it happened ?

The other problem was lower oil pressure after getting on the go pedal. (I have a high volume pump) Starting out, most of the time with driving, it stayed around 70-90, once it warmed up it would be around 30-40. After getting on it, it would drop to 25. Although that''s not a bad number, it's just that I did not like it.

When you road race with your Canton, how does your pressure react ?
