BB Oil pan ??

I am looking for a new oil pan for a 74 big block. My original is nasty and has some curb rash. There are some on Ebay....but they say not for Gen V engines. Is that ME ?

Thanks...

You should have a Mark IV engine. That series ran from 65-90, maybe 91. Then Gen V started.

Most of the parts suppliers carry them. They are still made by GM and run about $140 or so. I had mine ('72) replaced this year because the drain plug was stripped.

The original Corvette oil pan had a good baffle system with a swinging trap door, watch those cheap eBay pans.
