While oil pan is off.......

[DESRT10]

I have to R&R the oil pan for the Paxton drain tube. Thought while it is off, would be an opportune time to do other mods then. I have researched as much as I can find on several sites and could only really find out about the valve mod in the oil pump. Who has this updated valve? Would there be any benefit in adding a crank scraper or other windage tray? I assume changing the oil pump, due to its location, requires more than removing the pan for access. Any other tips on things to do while the pan is off.

You should already have a crank scraper.
If you have an older 3-piece oil pump relief shuttle, you can replace it with a single piece relief.
Put a little o2 friendly silicone in each of the (4) corners of the oil pan before reinstalling.
