In the midst of my build using a 302 with stock oil pan. I have the Speedhut gauge set and added an oil temperature gauge. Now am looking for a place to install the sensor unit. On a related thought, when the car is finished I would like to use it occasionally for autocross, if nothing more as a learning experience.

I am wondering if I can, or should, try killing two birds with one stone by installing an aftermarket oil pan with baffles, etc, and which includes an oil temperature port.

Question then is - which aftermarket pan should I consider ? There are several out there by Canton, Ford Perf., Milodon, etc. some with front or rear sump placement.

- Any recommendations ? Anything to avoid ?

Thanks
