It won't be an aluminum pan, largely because it's easier to start with the OEM as a foundation. Jack purchased a new stock steel pan last year, and I'll just build it off that.
I personally can't manufacture the pans, but I could possibly provide templates for someone else to do it if you guys are interested in a group buy.
The trap doors will be something similar to these.

It's a style I've used a lot in the past on circle track, race and rally engines. Pretty simple and cheap material-wise, but just time consuming for someone like me to build (in other words expensive for one-offs). You need to find someone with mass production capabilities to make it cost-effective.
The only other addition would be a crank scraper most likely. The windage must be extreme at 8000+ rpms.
