Diaper or belly pan

<< < (3/4) > >>

Rusty Kramer:
Pan and Diapers are both a PIA and yes Pans are rock catchers. But I Run both on a Rear Engine Car.  Have seen Diapers not hold oil and cars hit the wall.(maybe they were not fit or put on correct)

We tape our pads in the pan and the Diaper and they stay put. I think you want everything you can have to keep oil contained.

I use dabs of RTV to keep the pads in place.  When changing the pad, pull the pad up and scrape the RTV off with a gasket scraper.  Apply more RTV and install new pad.

The big show guys use duct tape to hold the pads in place.

I find the blue painters tape works really well in adverting to the diapers.

Paul New:
Ron Austin a chassis builder in Southern Oregon built a really sweet pan with an absorbent pad contained between the pan and another piece of aluminum to hold it in with some dimple died holes very clean looking set up
