The reason i ask we have a clements engines and they want us to throe our square tank away and get round tanks not sure the reason we have a mct tank in our car and itt is not baffled properly and spit oil from the breather all over so we cant fill the tank to the window

[perfconn]

Do you have the engine sealed and have the Peterson popoff valve on the valve cover or do you run it with breathers on the valve cover?

[scrub_fan]

Pop off valve in the cover was told that some of the tanks had the baffles made wrong or something like that same motor our other car no problem

[perfconn]

Suggest you call Mike.If there is a problem with the tank I'm sure he will take care of it.

When they start making square toilets I might consider a square tank. Until then, I will stick with round.

What does a toilet have to do with a drysump tank.

[Egoracing]

If you watch a toilet flush, it actually aerates the water, not what you want in an oil tank.

AND they do make square toilets.

Round tanks help de-aerate the oil better than square tanks. If you have a square tank it needs to at least have some curved section in it.

Basically the most ideal tank is round, skinny, with conical plates inside.

I do not agree on the skinny part as you would want the most surface area available to allow trapped air out. A skinny tank would allow air to be pushed down as more oil comes into the tank. This is why Nascar uses tanks that are about 18 inches in diameter.
