Oil Pan
« on: April 26, 2014, 04:28:10 PM »
Does anybody have an oil pan for SBC that are looking to get rid of. My oil pan from my door car might not cut it. What would be a good oil pan ?

This is what I have on my engine now. I guess the reason not to run is possible ground clearance ? Or is it something you can run a pan with a rear sump ?

You might be ok with that pan, best is to put the engine in and see what you need.  A lot of pans have a rear height of around 8 1/4" rear sump depth or close to that. For instance I have two motors one with a Moroso alum race pan and the other a  Milodon steel street/race pan in my Mabry chassis and have plenty of clearance. Ya jut gotta check and see what you need.
