They sure hold a lot of oil. |
That aviaid pan is a beast!
The cruicial dimensions are the 15" width 9" depth and 12" length of the sump, probably would fit in my car, but I'd have to remove the passender side header to get to the starter. The C6 oil pan has internal baffles that eliminated the need for the batwing pan of the C5. Maybe one could start with an aluminum (for ease of fabrication) drag race pan then add baffling similar to the C6? |
Just been reading through the last ten pages or so and nice project engine!!!
Have you selected a cam and cylinder head package for your motor yet? I sure hope you dyno it and put a vid. on your build thread after it's assembled. Paul :thumbsup: |

Holy crap, I go dormant for a while on this thread and get to come back to this find! Sweet, Sweet, Sweet Todd, great find and a perfect combo for the cars potential your looking for. |
I did get a small update on my engine today. My valve guides are shot after 3500 miles. :rolleyes: Over .010 clearance on the intakes. Jason is thinking bad geometry or assembled dry. Neither would surprise me. So now I need guides and that means a valve job. Might as well port the heads now to. :morepower All the bottom end parts have been picked by Jason at Pettis Performance. He's used all of the parts and tested them in previous engines.

Sorry to hear about the heads. Maybe getting into the motor now was the best thing.
Nice list of parts there! :thumbsup: Any ideas for power level yet? |
Nice parts!

Great car, I am not surprised by the guides, I have assembled alot of racing BBC and you have to know what you are doing its not a slap it together engine! I am building a 496 for my 69 so I am working with the Todd starter kit! I have cubic inch envy! You will definately need some new tires soon! :thumbsup:
