David G and I have been comparing our experience with oil pans. This is my AVIAD Cobra pan. This is the original configuration from the 60's in which the oil-pump 4-swinging door assembly is oriented fore-aft.
This pan was sourced new from AVIAD about 2000. The new version has the pick-up box mounted on the DIAGONAL. According to AVIAD and David's experience with his Canton the diagonal setup is more effective at retaining oil-pressure.
