Stroker oil pan

[benny89LX]

Looking for opinions / advice. im buidling a 331 stroker and am wondering if people are running the stock oil pan and if it works clearance wise. If not what oil pan and pump are you running. I really dont want to go high po oil pump due to issues i had with trying to run one on the 306 i built. any input is appreciated.


Thank you
Ben

A stock pan will clear just fine. If your running a girdle you may have clearance issues with stock pan.

Nothing wrong with a HV pump if the motor is built around needing the extra volume.

The stnd Melling is a M68

I used the stock oil pan and HV Melling Pump on mine. The only problem I had was with the ARP main studs... it pushed my pickup tube down due to the #3 stud have a thicker bolt flange than the stock bolt, which caused my pickup tube to hit the stock pan. I ended up just using a stock main bolt on that one stud.
