Oil pan info

Looking to hear from anyone that can recommend a good aftermarket wet sump oil pan that preferably has a scraper and baffling but fits the stock front clip.

Re: Oil pan info

Yeah, I was a little too tired when I posted that half-thought last night. It's a ZZ3 block with one piece rear seal and I'm using a 3.8" stroke crank. It looks like Canton has a really nice piece. Milodon shows a good one too but only for the two piece seal. I was just looking for anyone's personal experience with pans as far as fit, possible flange leaks or any issues they ran into.

Re: Oil pan info

I run a canton road race pan on mine.. like it alot, one thing it needs, if you drag race, is the baffle that keeps oil from going up the rear of the pan during a launch.
