windage tray Options

[jmargush]

I have been watching the type 4 engine assembly video and when the case is assembled the windage tray is not installed.

Is this something that was just left out or is the windage tray not needed?

I do remeber reading some articles where there were holes drilled into the tray to let the oil return to the pan quicker.

What is the prefered direction for a 2056 build?

There are schools of thought on the Windage Tray but I suggest drilling the holes and keeping it in the motor. That is how it was designed.

Now, not sure what you mean about the preferred direction for a 2056 build?
I suppose there are 3 basic directions;

1. Get someone to build it for you from the forums that has a good reputation and it would run about $5k for a long block

2. get a 2.0l working motor and do the 96mm KB pistons with AA/Mahle cyl upgrade. Put on your old heads and induction and get some improvement

3. Totally rebuild a motor to 2056 specs with new ported heads and the 96mm KB pistons with AA/Mahle cyl upgrade and get more power.

SO, not sure what you are looking for. 96mm slip ins require no machining to install them in the case and heads so it is a relatively easy build.\

Good luck!

As far as direction for 2056 I meant just in relation to the windage tray incase the slightly higher performance motor would require something different.
