I haven't tried it personally, but from what I understand, it'll get in the way of most any exhaust you use except shortie headers with custom downpipes.

Re: will this 7qt oil pan fit

dam thats kind of crappy but being as im building a whole new turbosystem im sure i could work around it then , but i do need to make sure i can get 2 3.5 or 3.0 inch downpipes past it

for the price i guess it wont hurt to just get it and see what happens

Re: will this 7qt oil pan fit

You'll never get the oil filter out if you have headers.

Re: will this 7qt oil pan fit

Moroso makes a 6 qt pan that fits perfect.

It has a non kicked out sump for header & oil filter clearance. check on their website.

Re: will this 7qt oil pan fit

looks just like the milodon pan. i run on the last 383. fits just fine..
7qt. driver side dip stick...ya might wana ask if the full size filters fit..if so. your good to go... will not fit cross over tube in front of pan.

it's now a wall hanger. tryn canton now. the same shape.but had to have a few AN fittings added...
had to go with a diff pan. To make room for the new crank stroke..4"...lol

Re: will this 7qt oil pan fit

I never like the kickouts for our cars. Make it tough for the oil filter and headers.

Re: will this 7qt oil pan fit

i put the stock pan back on it figured id do what i do with all my turbo engines with a stock pan , just drop an extra 1/2 to full quart of fluid in it to make up for the volume of oil filling the feed and drain lines

motor is still on the stand for now so i may still try that pan or just get the non kicked out 6qt pan

Re: will this 7qt oil pan fit

The new canton pan like my old million pan fits and works with the full size filters..but has a few trap doors. Windbag try. And crank scraper (fit to crank).and oil return AN fittings.also had a bung installed by canton for my oil temp gauge.as they did not offer this in the part number I wanted.

Re: will this 7qt oil pan fit

Mine looks like that, it's a Milodon. Fits the stock K-member fine with Hooker Super Comp headers. To change oil filter I punch a hole in the bottom to drain it. I have to turn it sideways to get it out, but it's no problem.
