You really think on a street car that I drive the chit out of that would be ok ? I was gonna order the canton road race pan because the sump is kicked out and doesn't hang low and also the dipstick tube comes with it as well as the pickup . Plus the internal baffling

A dip stick is ideal, I personally don't miss having one. For a lot of street miles then it probably is a better idea to have one than to not. Please excuse my race car

What pan do you have on the motor now? I'm assuming it is some sort of aftermarket deal to clear the 4 bolt main caps?

Damn Jeff. I am glad you finally found what it was since I still seem to have a similar problem @ 3k+. Car still runs good, just shakes like a dog passing a peach pit sometimes.

New motor going in this weekend?!?!?!?
