I used to run a windage tray but after hearing many many opinions on the disadvantage/advantage of using this type, that type or none, I decided to not run one. The pan has the 2 layer sheet metal tray spot welded in just like the factory pans did. So that's all I have in it. Pressure stays up after the stripe but I don't run big numbers and ease off the throttle so there's not a lot of negative G's.
