stroker oil pan??
Hi everyone. Im looking to buy a stroker oil pan for my 383 roller block. I cant seem to find anything for a 1pc main. Is a stroker pan even called for? Any help would be great. Thanks

Re: stroker oil pan??
Check your clearance. Chances are you'll be fine with a stock pan.

Re: stroker oil pan??
That would be great if I had a stock pan but I started this build with a 383 bare block, either way I need to buy one. I was thinking something along the lines of a moroso street/strip pan. Are guys running them on thirdgens?

I got a steel stock style pan for a 400 from Summit on my 2pcRMS block with stroker crank and stock rods. Worked fine on mine.

Canton makes a nice one . I have the 2 piece seal version and my friend has the 1 piece version. It's called the 82-92 body road race pan. It runs about $360 on cantons site. Goodluck.

Even H-beams might clear. I have Eagle 5700B3D's and I didn't have trouble with a stock pan. YMMV.

Re: stroker oil pan??
If anything the H Beams clear better because of the smaller head cap screws they use
Also have full length Moroso tray ; just adjusted tray height on the ARP threaded mounting studs to give air gap clearance from crank throws

Re: stroker oil pan??
have run a few diff 383s. canton makes a few pans that are under $210 from summit 6qt kick out styl that fit the 82/92 camaro
Milodon also makes a few that fit.
the price is also under $210
all are made to fit 1 piece and made to fit 2 piece (diff part #)
you can also pick out the dip stick side.
the thing to remember is know what block your going to use first.
expl: i have one for sale now. the new 427 is way to big to fit the Milodon pan that was on the last 383.
Milodon pan 2 pc main pasng side dip stick 7QT.side kick out. lots of grnd clearance
Milodon oil pump pick
Milodon windage try
Milodon main bolts for windage try.
this set was on a lingenfelter stage 5 383. in my 92 Z28.
was posted a few months back Cheap! less then 1/2 price.

What do you guys think? This pan should do the trick. http://www.summitracing.com/parts/CTR-15-244T/All/

Re: stroker oil pan??
That's the pan I use. Works good.
My engine was a stock block, 3.875" eagle 4340 and 6" eagle h beams. I wish I got it for $300.. haha.
Oh and once you have a filter filled, you have 6 quarts total. I spun mine to 7500rpm. I also used The Canton pickup and a melling high volume pump. I never seen oil pressure drop, even while slamming the brakes at 140mph after the stripe.
