Thanks everyone for your input. I decided to use the windage tray.
Now for the rest of the story. I was assembling my case and following along with Jake's type 4 assembly video. I was down to the last couple of case nuts when I realized that I had not but in the windage tray. Jake's video is for a VW type 4 and there is no windage tray in that assembly. Soo... I swore a little, split the case again, put in the windage tray and put the case back together. Ah well... If there is a moral to this story, it would have payed to make a list of assembly steps for the specific engine I was building and not blindly follow a generic video. |
