Which Oil Pan Will Fit?

Recommended Posts

I have a 1970 240Z that I am putting a 280Z engine in (N42 block which should be from a '75-80 Z car).  I have heard that there were three different oil pans and some had fitment issues in some cars.  So my question is this...will the stock oil pan on the 280Z engine fit in my 240Z without issues?  Does anyone have pictures of the different pans and identify which is which?

The 280Z oil pan will fit fine in your 240Z.  The 280ZX pan is different but it also will fit in a 240Z or 280Z.  I think that fit problems happen if you try to put a 240Z/280Z pan in a 280ZX.

Your biggest problem with an L28 in your 240Z might be the exhaust manifold.  Not sure but  think that the 240Z collector is a bit small and restrictive.  Maybe not.  Anyway, it should be a piece of cake.
