Unless you are spinning the motor like you are at NASCAR race for 200 laps, you will certainly not run the stock oil pan dry by using a high volume oil pump. This is a myth. Besides, the percentage increase in volume is only a max of 25% on a good day, since the oil pump pickup tube has not been increased in size.
