Windage

Windage is the flow of air within the crankcase. Each time a piston comes down in the piston bore the air under it is pushed into the crank area and each time the piston goes up the air is pulled in behind it. In a eight cylinder engine all eight pistons go up and down each revolution. At the same time the rotating assembly is spinning and churning the air. Oil coming off of the crank is also put into the mix. So as the RPM increases so does windage. At 6000 RPM’s the assembly is rotating 100 times a second.

Windage trays

A windage tray keeps the windage around the crank from the oil in the sump area. It should allow the oil coming off the crank to easily enter the sump without the windage affecting the oil already in the sump. A good windage tray should also keep the oil in the sump from getting into the rotating assembly when the action of the vehicle is in motion.

from what I understand, it basically keeps the splash back of oil from causing drag on your crank and such. that adds a few horsepower

Basically it makes it so your crank doesnt dip into the oil when its turning.

I was once told (here on MF) that you can see as much as 10rwhp by adding a windage tray. Anyone know for certain?

Maybe on a 800 hp car. Your car is the sum of your parts, so the more go fast parts you have on your car that work well together the more youll see from each individual mod.

itll add horsepower i dont even really know what it is but i know itll make power
