With my cooler I'm up to 6 qts. A deep sump or pan extension would bring that to 7. I just found these low profile scoops on my shelf from an aborted past project.....Low enough profile they might work well modified and mounted to the Lower tray to ventilate the sump...Hmmm....

CAI project in the rear..Stay tuned on that!
