If you notice the location of the scraper (ie. flush with the pan rail) and think about it a second,its not much different from fitting a block mounted scraper.

And you could easily check its clearance by mocking up a cardboard templet to see just how close it is.

The difference would amount to maybe the thickness of the gasket used +/- just a tiny bit,so just use the gasket underneath the templet while mocking it up to check clearance.

I think it would be fine by looking at it.

Looks nice!

Why no windage screen in the front half of the Canton?

I sent Canton a crank scraper I bought from Paul Spotts. It was origionly meant to be sandwiched between the block and oil pan and has holes in it that correspond to the bolt holes in the pan. When I take a old scraper I have on hand and align it with the bolt holes it matches the leading edge of the welded in scraper, so the fit will be close. We do expect there may be the need to trim it. Also, you can't see it but the scraper has bracing under it.

The previous pan I got from them with a screen installed covered most of the pan length. I was surprised to see that this one only covers the back half.

This pan is their basic #15-450 Road Race pan that has been modified. It normally comes with a 7" sump depth. But with the addition of the screen and scraper I had them increase the sump depth to 8-1/8" to increase the capacity from 7 qts to 8 qts. Also had them add a plug on the side to accomodate a oil temp sending unit and provisions for the dip stick to be directly in the pan.
