I just had standard LN eng deep sump with extention under the OM baffels that were bought new for the build. The oil pickup was extended down into the deep sump. This was doen before the newest horisontally baffled deep sumps came on the market. I did not have X-51 steel baffles, but then again Mantis who make one of the new type baffles swear to the OM plastic baffles in theyr "system". And when I dismantled the broken engine, there was nothing wrong with the baffles. I belive the problem is in the heads, not the sump, see my thread on the subject her:
Oil system mods for Track
