Depending on the type of driving you do, depicts what happens to the oil in the pan under your car. For drag racers, brutal acceleration in a straight line causes oil to move back in the pan, causing the engine to potentially suck up air instead of oil – which is bad news if you want that engine to survive to the end of the 1/4-mile. Maybe drag racing isn’t your thing, but guess what? When you hit those long sweepers at the track, oil can be forced to the left or the right of the pan potentially causing a lack of oil for the engine.

Canton starts off their with their oil control solutions by creating an oil pan with as much oil capacity as possible depending on the application (limitations include ground clearance, header, or cross-member size). More oil means better heat dissipation so it takes longer to hit those high numbers and which gets you longer life out of the oil.

Finishing it all is baffling, which is placed in the pan designed to keep oil around the pickup to ensure your engine is protected during the harshest of conditions. Baffling is placed specifically based on application – so know that extensive testing has gone into the oil pan on your car. With tons of direct fit oil control solutions, be sure to check out what Canton Racing Products offers for your vehicle.
