[QUOTE="pollyp, post: 534223, member: 4527"] i thought the previous split door design of the windage gates seemed to restrict the outflow cos naturally the oil being flung out the crank will mostly wanna flow out the bottom hole at a tragectory down and backwards due to the rotation of the crank. so to provide the easiest route i redesigned the gates to open facing backwards like the louvres on a normal windage tray. one less moving hinge per cyl will improve reliability of the gate and the larger surface area will allow the sloshing oil to push the gate closed more effectively and improve its responsiveness against reverse surge during cornering.
