Windage Tray?

[lowflyer]

I read a couple of threads in the archives about windage trays, but I'm still unclear on a couple of things.

First, let me say that I have a 3.4 Chevy crate engine in a sports/kit car. The 3.4 is the engine sold by Chevy as a replacement for the original 2.8 in S10's.

Here's where my confusion sets in... in the posts there are references to a Gen 3 and Gen 2 engine. Which one is the 3.4 crate?

I use the car for autocross and spirited back road driving and would like to add a windage tray to keep the oil in the bottom. I picked up a stock pan and was going to create my own but if there is a simple way of doing it using stock GM parts that would be cool, too.

So, please tell me whether the tray from the 3.4 DOHC engine is a fit.

Thanks.

well, frist, the 3.4 crate is actually a GenI motor. iron heads and all.


i couldn't tell you for sure but i would think the how-to for making the 3400 windage tray fit a genII motor should be about the same. hopefully someone else chimes in.

A DOHC Tray will bolt on with the accompanying studs.

If you cannot find a DOHC tray then you can modify a Gen III Tray to fit.

i happen to have a gen III tray if you want it...i can even get you my old stock main studs if someone wants to chime in and say they work...idk what happened to the nuts, those are up to you.
