the sump is TIG and the baffles on the windage tray are MIG.
the pickup pipe and the baffles are 5-6mm clear of the bottom of the sump so there should be no problems getting enough oil to the pipe. A mate of
mine is running a 2litre zetec with a shortened sump and no baffling at all and had no issues for the last 4 years or so.
i guess only time will tell!
