Big block oil pan
I'm putting a big block in my 67 stepside I'm wondering how big an oil pan will fit with out hitting the crossmember? It's a stroker so the bigger the better, I'm thinking of a moroso ultimate II. I just don't know if it will fit? Also has anyone ever put a dry sump system in these trucks?

Re: Big block oil pan
Dry stump is big bucks. If you want more clearance swap in a 73-86 crossmember, it will give you some more room and more oil pan options

Re: Big block oil pan
I have a Moroso 6 qt. pan on my big block with no modifications to the cross member. Had to pull the motor to put it on though.

Re: Big block oil pan
Thanks for the input guys! Clay do you mean you have this oil pan on ebay now? or you got it on ebay? Does any one else have pictures of there big block pan in the truck with stock crossmember? I'm looking to see how big a kick out I can get on it with out hitting crossmember....
