Which Oil Pan to Use?
I have a 69 350 that I'm putting in my 88 Camaro. I have to get a new oil pan, what should I buy? Should I buy a pan for a 3rd gen sbc, or a pan for a 69 sbc? I'm looking to keep it cheap so I just want a factory replacement pan, nothing crazy like a performance one.

'69 will have driver side dipstick and 2-piece RMS. '82-'85 3rd gen will have passenger side dipstick and 2-piece RMS. '86-up 3rd gen will have passenger side dipstick and 1-piece RMS.
A "standard" pan from the early 350 era (standard meaning non-Vette, non-truck), 1969-1979, will do. Something like this http://www.summitracing.com/parts/su...9/model/impala is inexpensive and will do the job.
