I need to know what oil pan ya'll are using. Will my stock 289 pan work? Or
will the factory 93 mustang pan work? The car in question will be a 66 coupe.
Thanks for any ans all info.

Lol.. So I guess your doing a motor swap or something?

If you do swap oil pans, you'll also want to swap oil pickup tubes as well.

I'm using the front sump pan off of an old 302... your 289 pan should work fine.

The 93 pan will not work. It's dual sump. You need a front sump. The stock 289 pan and pick-up tube will work fine.
