Alright- I am having my annual road trip up to Brownwood Tx in a couple weeks for a camp I teach at and I'm trying to get my car good and ready. One thing that bothers me about my car though is the oil pressure- I have a HV pump and stock pan and at idle it wants to try to suck the pan dry- dropping the pressure.
I'd like to get a high cap pan, so I'm looking at options. So far the front runner is either the Canton 7qt or 9qt pan. What do y'all think? I've considered the milodon offerings but they seem more mass production than the canton- I have small doubts about little stuff like that. I've heard really good things about canton in terms of quality, just not sure which to go with.
Right now I have a fairly stock 80' 302 with nothing more I've put inside than a double roller chain and the hv pump. BUT- my next motor is going to be a 331 stroker which I hope will be pushing around 425-450 at the rear wheels. I know this would need a reliable oil system to survive well. So would it either be the 7qt (like 206$ at Streetortrack) or like 9qt road race (270$ or so)?
What are y'all oppinions and are there any deals to be found out there? Thanks!
