Just a basic thought for you. If you replaced a SB with this 502BB, the additional weight on the front may be a part of your issue. Also, if your springs are original they may be out weighed with the BB and your front is lower then it should be. Dennis

Good luck... GUSTO
Not really better, the owner stole most of the designs from Moroso
You should not have to go with an aftermarket pan on a 502. Put a regular GM Corvette pan on it and you should be good to go. If not, you either have it sitting very low or you need new front springs. Make sure you get a pan that has the correct front and rear seal size, I believe the later engines like your 502 used a larger rubber seal on the rear main cap.

Thanks JRM5657 the 502 came with its own pan which may be deeper to accommodate the crank.I'll see if I can find the pan from the 427 block and see if it works. Really a pain everywhere has speed bumps and even approaching at an angle doesn't work
Just in case I can't find a pan could someone measure the depth of the standard corvette pan for me so I can compare it to the one on the 502. Cant remember if my old pan was a double hump or not. Ah the golden years
