I seriously doubt the updated pan helps....the small added baffels in the updated pans are NOTHING compared to the baffeling/punched out capacity done by Mirko, Roush (for the Bondurant cars) & those cars STILL failed in the turns until Accusump added. Reason is oil is held in the head secondary to need for an additional drainback (that the 3L has). Pan is not the problem..

Accusump = effective.
Full 3L = effective.
Running a full 6.0 quarts in the sump AND avoiding long hard right turns (especially offramps) WITH high engine revs (ie. take her out of second and let the revs drop to 2000) OR sustained high revs..probably effective (I suspect).
