: : I have two oil pans for my 1930 A, the splash pan in one of them has 8 holes drilled in it & the other one has only the distick & oil pump apertures. My question is which one is correct?, was the drilled one a modification or has this come from a different year oil pan?.

:The pan with the oil pump clean out is a 28.Long live the 28's.

DJ,
I may be misinterpreting your description of the "splash" pan and if so, disregard my comments..... My first impression was that you were referring to the tray in the pan which holds the oil supply for the dippers on the bottom of the rods.I have seen some "after market" holes drilled in the tray compartments to allow the oil to drain out. This was to assure that all the oil was drained at "change" time.None of the old oil left inside.The person doing so must assume that the oil pump will supply a sufficient amount of oil for proper rod lubrication.
