I have a 351W Stroker (408ci). What is everyone using for an oil pan? I'm looking for a rear sump/T sump large capacity pan for use in my '66. TIA.

I don't see how you can use a rear sump on your 66. The crossmember and steering prevent anything but a front sump.

You can use stock, or aftermarket deep sump, or even a Cobra-style T pan.

Has to be front sump like said above. I have a stock pan in mine right now because i couldnt justify the EFFFIN crazy price of a 7qt oil pan when i was ready to start my motor..

I used a Moroso. it looks a lot like the Canton pictured above. Using the Moroso pan did not allow me to use the RMP 1/2" drop motor mounts though.

the canton clears with drop mounts and ran me about $260 I belive, fit and finish is top notch and it is well baffled inside too.
