Keeps engine parts from falling into your oil pan if the motor decides to let go

It reduces the amount of oil tossed up to the crank to help eliminate windage.

If you are gonna go to the trouble of putting one on you might want to look into getting one that is a windage/scraper unit all in one.

Might not be practical for a street car but you can check into the possibility.
