4.6 3V Oil Pan

I have been researching oil pans for my 2008 Mustang GT and it looks like there are two options: Moroso and Canton. Are they both about the same or is one a better option? I mostly just autocross, but may start doing track days next year.
I'm not sure if it matters, but I'm also looking at the supercharger from Department of Boost

Interested in knowing this as well.
 
Don’t have any input of value here, but I have a Moroso 20548 sitting on the workbench waiting to go on. I originally wanted an aluminum pan but no one seems to make/stock them. At least they didn’t earlier this year when I sourced the pan.

I’m not doing anything regarding aftermarket windage tray since the 3V has one from factory mounted to the mains and I think the block-gasket-windage tray-gasket-pan sandwich is just introducing potential leaks for no added value. I confirmed with Moroso the factory 3V pickup works with this pan.
 
I was looking at the windage tray/crank scraper from Livernois. Not sure if it's worth the upgrade though.
 
Another option to consider might be the high capacity cast aluminum oil pan from the 13/14 GT500

Ford Racing used to offer a kit (M-6675-MSVT) which included the oil pan, combination gasket/windage tray/scraper, pickup tube and hardware for a very reasonable price, but it is NLA and probably difficult to find these days

Note, the combination gasket/windage tray/scraper does need a very small amount of trimming to fit the 4.6 3V

Ford Racing also used to offer the oil pump from the 13/14 GT500 (M-6600-F46) but that kit is also NLA

I think you can still source all these parts individually new from Ford, but at a much higher overall price

Thanks! I'll check it out
