Default Oil Pick-up Tube Thread

There was a thread late last year about re-enforcing oil pick-up tube with some pictures. I have searched and cannot find it. Can someone please help with the link?

Also, would Lindsey oil pan Baffle be a useful addition for a 91 S2 racecar? I have over 100K miles on the car with the last 5 years only track duties and have never had an issue with oil pressure, but thinking about doing rod bearing as preventive and would like to add new oil pick-up tube and oil pan baffle while in there.

TIA

From what I've read, the S2 already has an extra oil pan baffle.

Nader. I agree. I think the 91 S2 has the oil pan baffle. Not sure.
My failure at Mosport last year was a broken oil pick up. Good idea to do the reinforcement.

Don,

I need to figure out how to re-inforce. I will give you a shout by email.

I would advise you to make the rod bearings a definite.
