I think that the SpeedTech pan has more of a "by design" sump to them than the OEM pans do. The oil drains better in to the sump leaving more around the pickup and it's much more difficult for the oil to escape the sump dynamically. I'm not sure if it makes a difference but the pickup on the SpeedTech oil pan has a lot more surface area than the OEM one does and placement in the sump is about ideal.
