does anyone have a good web site for reference pictures (and maybe dimensions) on aluminum oil pans, preferably dry sump, so i can make one. i have done some goggling and haven't found a good one yet. hopefully you guys will.

thanks a bunch....

Do a google search dry sump oil system. Found tons of suff easily. Lots of diagrams photo etc. If you find a sustem you like for the engine search that manufacturer pans are very different in there configuration engine/chassis/application.

i realize it's probably too late but, do you still need drysump oil pan pics and or dimensions. i'd be happy to take some shots and measurements of the ones i have. you have your choice moroso or hamburger.

first off, WELCOME! this is a great site, tons of knowledgeable people and tons of great builders here. your work is something special and i am sure you will fit right in here.

now, it's never too late, my friend. i would appreciate any and all help on this subject. the application is on a stalled project, a 440 wedge motor that i am putting into a dart, (1/25 scale of course, cant afford that stuff for my 1:1 car). i scratchbuilt the frame and didn't quite measure correctly and the pan hits the ground. so if i go with a dry sump (thinner pan, basically no sump) i will have the ground clearance i need. any help would be appreciated. now, i am by no means a rivit counter, but would like to make it look right as far as the lines and basic shape go.

again, thanks and welcome.

just so you know the shots i have are for a bbc. the 440 has a different configuration due to the sides of the block.









my assumption is you just needed a depth measurement. my pan is about 9 " deep at the rear. if youneed anything else....yell. if i have i'll shoot it.
