Re: anybody try this pan?

I've used Moroso pans for other applications. In the case of the last one I used it was pretty warped and even after some work to flatten it out on my surfacing table it still required a lot of sealant to fill in the gaps where the flange was warped from welding.

Re: anybody try this pan?

they seem to do that some times..will do a post on fitment..wanted to drop as much weight with lighter parts as I could... this pan is almost 4lbs lighter the the steel pan..and the billet oil pump is almost 3lbs lighter the the cast iron part...(melling 55HV w/canton pick up)
with all the other parts that have been replaced that's over 200lbs off the front of the car at this point..and nothing has been hacked up.(not into rattle traps)
just replaced with aftermarket parts..and just removed as they are not needed...

nexed up.. am going with aluminum struts..to drop some more wt..

Re: anybody try this pan?

Why you switching from the canton? I have the 246t. The moroso trans pan is a nice tight fit on mine though good quality.

Re: anybody try this pan?

I kind of want that pan, but I'm not sure I could sneak the oil filter in and out past the bungs on the side, between the header and the pan ... that's how it works with my moroso which has the same kind of sump.

Re: anybody try this pan?

it is a snug fit but the oil filter slips out by the flexplate/ header /oilpan...

but would be fantastic with a remote filter.. the moroso pan has a cutout for the filter to just slide into place...

ill take a few shots it on the block the headers are hooker 2210 (what ever the longtube part number)

going to pick up my $3600 700R4 super dooper transbrake close ratio killer trany this fri.. my guy who put it all together told all the parts feel like glass now installed....hope it works out..thats a lot of money into hard parts..if it works..and I like it..ill do a 2nd one with my back up trany..over the winter....lol seems the wife after getting a new SS kitchen and new carpet (all of the house).. is yapping about counter tops...(not going to happen) I want a rider for cutting the grass...lol

Ah, I have a stick, so the blow shield takes up a lot more room I think. There's no way you can get the filter out the back ... I have the same headers. But I'm thinking about getting new ones in stainless (probably have to be custom) as the goddamn jethot hasn't faired so well after 15yrs or so.

I have a similar Moroso pan right now (to the Canton) it's just old and apparently I didn't prep it as well as I thought I did when I painted it because its rusting and peeling

It never ends man!
