Good afternoon. I've got my engine back from the shop and am in the process of putting it together. This is a 440 for my 76 Chrysler NY, so it's pretty much stock. The engine came out of a 78 dodge truck and I noticed during the tear down that it didn't have an oil slinger on it. I can't really tell if it came from the factory this way or if the owner of the truck didn't put it back on when he replaced the timing set.
What I'd like to know is what roll does the oil slinger play and should I be putting one in there?:confused:
On the same build, I'm wondering if I need a windage tray with the shallower oil pan. Again, the truck oil pan had a rear deep sump pan and didn't have the windage tray in it. I'm using a 933 pan and from all the pics and references I've seen, it has the baffles welded into it so that leads me to believe I won't need the windage tray. Any thoughts on this?
