    1970 440 oil pan windage tray

    I know that 440's came with a windage tray in between the engine and the oil pan. My question is: if I don't race the car, does the engine need the windage tray when replacing the oil pan gasket? What would happen if I do not replace the tray? Thanks for the info in advance. Dennis
