Leaking Oil Pan ??
Im about 90% sure that my oil pan gasket is the culpret , so im going to replace it with a new one question is which one do i need ! I have the driver side dipstick and i have an after market pan from summit that calls for the thick front seal .Im wanting to go with the one pice from fel pro , after doing a search on the site im still not sure on which one to go with either the 1880 or 1885 !
The 1880 is the right size but it says that its trimmed for the stroker does that matter i have a 350 sbc any body have any ideas as to what will work best ?
Also i have the two piece rear main seal is that a problem with putting on a one piece gasket ?

The oil pan gasket has nothing to do with your 2 piece rear main seal. I installed a felpro gasket in my '79 a couple years ago and believe I used the one that has the thick front to it. A good auto store should get you the correct one.
