Re:

3 qt accumulater with automatic open and apporiate baffles in the pan. Bigger oil pan if you have the room is helpful as well. The g8 pan will hold 8 qts. Here are baffles for ls pans: http://www.improvedracing.com/oiling-system/oil-pan-baffles-c-3_11.html

This is the route I'm taking. The IR baffle looks to be a nicely made piece. Haven't tested it yet.

I was very pleased with the quality of the product very nice.

For those that are running an accumulator, did you find that the baffled pan wasn't enough by itself or did you throw it into the equation right from the start?
