I am looking for an inexpensive option or used. Motorsports has one for about $300 which I think is 7 quart. Any other options? Anyone willing to part with a used one?

Thx,

Long ago when I was a poor boy we used to cut the bottom off of one Chevy SB pan and weld it on to the cut off bottom (after some pounding with a hammer to custom fit) of another to get more volume. Not pretty but it worked and we got the pans for free.

thanks Lance. and for 400 bucks I could even get it OK looking....

Hey Doc,

Are you using and Accusump for back up oil pressure and volume ??

Unless you are good at welding and fabrication you are almost stuck paying the big bucks for a competition pan. I think $300 is the cheapest I have seen a new one so far. Hopefully a used one comes your way.

What size tires and wheels are your running on your car ??

Hey Mike,

Cool Idea but I won't really fab one. I found MSAs suppier in Canada and $300 for a 7 quart. I checked you site but did not see any.

MSA sells it for $400

Oh, 16X7 Panasports. I understand Panasport makes a 16X8 now too with the right offset. Andy Craig told me.

My question is do you really need that much? With an oil cooler and the associated plumbing you will be in the neighborhood of 6+ quarts. All you really need are a sump and possibly a windage tray.

Phred might know how to do this or have plans on how to make one out of simple sheet metal.

Insurance for a motor which costs more than I could buy a restored 240Z for. I will have an oil cooler too.
