Which oil pan for 2pc main block? Does anyone have any idea which oil pan will clear everything in our engine bays and fit an older, 2pc rear main block? Oil level fittings and such are not a concern.
Thanks!
Don

Re: Which oil pan for 2pc main block? Canton has a pan that will fit...
Canton 15-120 (for pre-80 blocks with left side dipstick)
Canton 15-120M for 80-85 blocks with right side dipstick
T-sump pan, 7 1/2" deep... 7 qt system capacity (with 1 qt. filter)

Re: Which oil pan for 2pc main block? I know canton makes a couple pans, but I used one of their pieces on my old LT1 motor and I wasn't very impressed.
I found them to be overpriced and under-engineered. It was poorly finished and I had leaking problems to no end. I'd much prefer to use a Milodon or similar pan. I've had FAR better success with them.
Thanks,
Don

Re: Which oil pan for 2pc main block? To each their own... I haven't had any problems with sealing on this pan. Didn't require any clearancing for a 3.875" stroke either... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
Just giving you some options....
You can also use those specs to get an idea of what will fit, whether it be a Moroso, Milodon, etc.
The 15-120 pan specs are:
7 1/2" Deep
9 1/2" Long Sump
10 1/2" Wide Sump
The 15-244 pan is:
7 1/2" Deep
12" Wide
8 1/4" Long

Re: Which oil pan for 2pc main block? I personally like my stefs and will be getting another. On a side note the three canton pans that freinds had all leaked. I have heard many others that love theirs though.
