Back in the 50's the aluminum cast oil pan was an important piece .  In
those days we were not allowed an oil cooler and the pan had more capacity
and it also did a little cooling, but it also strengthened the block.  The
casting is thick and helped stabilize the Tr-3 block.  Valuable part in
days gone by. I admit I did grind the bottom of the pan on the track in
races but always used it for the cooling of the oil benefit (more due to
increased capacity than anything else)

*Never be beaten by equipment.*
