Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I'm installing an LN .5 qt deep sump extension in conjunction with an X-51 pan and baffel. The pan extension and pick-up extension I get. But, what is the small center spacer? Is it used with an aftermarket baffel? Or, is it intended to be used with the OEM X-51 pan?

POST 2Original post

If you think about it, the oil pan spacer for the additional .5 quarts lowers the pan, so you need to raise the baffles. Pretty simple.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thx.; you are right! At first I couldn't see what retained the baffle riser and wondered if the x51 pan was different than the m96. But after I taking a look at how it locks into the oem lip, I see now that it doesn't stack, but rather fits securely around the perimeter of the oem casting lip.
