utvolman99 Posted October 17, 2002 Share Posted October 17, 2002 Would this be acceptable for an oil system? I am worred about running dry at high RPMs. -Stock size five qt oil pan -dual remote oil filters -remote oil cooler I figure that this should make for at least a 7qt system. I currently have a 7qt oil pan that I dont think I will be able to use. I bought it from Ebay and it doesnt line up with the rear main seal very well.

utvolman99 Posted October 17, 2002 Author Share Posted October 17, 2002 Oh yeah, I would at least get a stock pan with a built in baffle. I cant go with a baffle that bolts to the mains. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grumpyvette Posted October 17, 2002 Share Posted October 17, 2002 first thing you NEED is a well designed SYSTEM thats cheap,look here, http://www.midwestmotorsportsinc.com/mms.nsf/pages/Specials thats $39-$60 for a good basic oil pan that holds 7-8 qts, I modifyed the 8qt pan to hold 9.5qts on my vette with an extended sump kit (wider not deeper) they also sell, I extended the sump 6" forward and cut the forward lower corner at an angle and re welded it to get (K) frame clearance the result was a 7.5" deep 9.5qt oil pan for just over $100 includeing the kit and welding costs, I also added a MILODON windage screen that necessary to control oil return flow don,t get cheap on your oil system or the connecting rods,its what keeps that engine together when you abuse it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
