early model front sump for a 289 or 302, or you get splurge and get a cool canton t-pan or similar or even a cast aluminum cobra t-pan, but those are pretty big bucks, a stock early model pan will most likely do everything you want it to other than serious open-tracking or drag racing, then you will need something with baffles for the particular style if racing, if any, you plan on doing, if it is just going to be a cruiser the stock early model pan will be fine and it will bolt right up to the late model motor
