i have a stock pan that has been modified . the sump area has been enlarged ( approx the same width with the rear "indent" removed , pan goes straight down pretty much in the rear ) but not deepened so the stock pickup can be used . simple front and rear sump baffles are in place to keep the oil from movin' around too much . also have an old K-B crank scraper that goes with it , new drain plug and the front of the pan has been "massaged" a little to clear front main studs ( per K-B instructions ) . not fancy and the add-in metal is pretty beefy but a little pebble sure ain't gonna put a hole in it and it does not leak . $100.00 plus the ride . del
here's some pics finally . sump area used to be squared off in the front but had to angle it back to clear crossmember . i was thinkin of taking some pics and listing it in "parts for sale" anyway . del
mike : i'll leave this here for ya for a couple days before i move it to "parts for sale" . let me know if ya have any questions etc . thanks . del
doug : sure thats ok , you are #2 . that was in a 65 special chassis , i saw you listed a couple there . the motor was in there as far back as possible for me and that was why i had to put a little back-angle in the front of the sump - i was loading in the trans and motor as one unit . that was a while ago - thats all i can remember . if ya need dif pics let me know . if ya give me ship-to zip ( business address a little cheaper usually ) i can guesstimate shipping $$ . or if you , or someone , are gonna be up in the general vicinity or maybe going to lebanon valley ( doubt that from delaware ) let me know . i'm located between binghamton and albany along interstate rt#88 about 40 minutes from binghamton . del
Hi Mike, I have one "modified stock oil pan" in stock if you're interested in a steel one vs an aluminum one. PM me if you're interested and I can give you the info. Thanks, Steve
mike : got your pm - sold pending further developments . will get ya shipping quote asap . del doug : and there's two other choices for ya . thanks . del
chris : couple year old TA catalog i have lists one at $410.00 . i'm sure the price has not dropped . SRE makes one i think , not sure of price . but those are very nice , baffle systems well thought out and i'm sure lighter than mine . del edit : * duh - did not catch the steve/sre conection a couple posts back . nice lookin pan steve *
ok - here's the deal - mike contacted me and now needs sump dimensions before continuing deal due to concerns on his end - no problem , i pm'd that info to him but may as well list it here also . dimensions are approx : sump bottom @ "flat" - 8" x 9.50" sump connection @ pan body - 11" x 9.50" sump only depth - 3.75" total depth @ sump - 7.50" so the score is : mike #1 , doug #2 ( nope - i think he's on pete's pan ) , or ? thats it . thanks . del
