truck vs F-body oil pan? does anybody have measurements on the F-body Oil pan? Mine is installed in my truck but I mounted the engine lower than normal (fabed my own mounts) and now I am concerned it is too low, the oil pan is slightly below the cross member. I dont know that I will have any problems but it makes me nervous,
If it will fit I will be looking for the complete pan and pickup tube and stuff...
thanks
Dave

wow thanks, I had looked on their site but hadnt found that. That is just what I needed. I am going to compare to my truck one but looks like I will be looking for a setup...
do I just need the pan and pickup tube?
I hope to find one pretty cheap.

You need pan, pickup, windage tray, dip stick, and tube.
(Not 100% sure about the tube and dip stick)
Windage tray is shorter than the truck tray.
Just put mine on last weekend...
I looked for a month on ebay and here. Best deal I found was $135 shipped for everthing.
New everything is around $250 I think.

You can alway check out the Cadilac CTS-V oil pan. it is not as low as a truck and not as long (front to back) as a F-body. I am using one in my 71 Chevelle. S&P has the compare on there web site...
I think a new oil pan will run u around $230+ retail, not including the windage and pickup or dip stick and tube.

Thanks all, I did some measuring last night and am now looking for either the Camaro stuff or the Caddy stuff, it appears like either will fit my application.
Thanks again
Dave
