Default buying the autokraft pan

Has anyone tried to buy an Autokraft pan lately? I have been waiting for about a month for him to call me back. He is very friendly when I call, and says that the pans are at the plating company. Is anyone else waiting for one?

Also, if someone has one to sell I am interested.

When I ordered mine he was really good to deal with. Have you called him recently? He might be in Vegas for Sema.

The champ pan looks identical, as mentioned earlier. In the testimonials section there is even a quote from autokraft. Does autokraft just plate and resell these with the pickup and filter relocation kit?

I was wondering the same thing. I think the best thing would be to call Champ and hear what they have to say. I know when you buy a pan from Champ, the pick is not included. You have to buy it separately from them

I spoke with Champs the other day. It is exactly the same pan. The only difference is with Champs you have to buy the pickup and filter adapter seperate. The price is the same too once you buy the package.

I have the Champ/AutoKraft pan on my car. I called and talked to Champ before I bought it and they said that they are all the same. I bought mine from Carshop Inc who is a sponsor here on the board and they had it in stock and when I bought mine they were cheaper than Autokraft or buying it direct and Carshop has been great to deal with.
