This might seem like an easy choice at 1st right? Baffled pan of course.

But when you consider that the 370 has a swinging oil pickup and the spacer kit comes with an extension for that pickup things get a little murkier in my mind. Seems like the baffling would limit the swinging pickups range of motion and even with baffles it seems like the pickup location could get low on oil in long corners since its stationary in the middle of the pan.

Opinions? Observations from use?
