Oil pan trick

WTH you talkin' 'bout Dude?
What engine or year are you asking about?
Typically and in all my years I've never heard of increasing HP via the oil pan. If you're talking about what we once called a "windage tray" that was a useful device for preventing oil in pan being whipped into a foam by the crankshaft counter weights. This was used if a dry sump oiling system wasn't employed.
I knew them to be used mostly on Chrysler 426 Hemi motors, some 383's and 440's too.
That's as tricky of an oil pan I know of--------anyone else?

Very little need for such a part anywhere in the typical street-driven vehicle of any description. Windage tray's were primarily and almost exclusively found in super high performance engines with crazy deep oil pans. Your 302 doesn't even come close to that sort of description, not with a stock oil pan.........
...and the proper amount of oil in the pan too........

This is true, you don't need it.
