Default oil pan replacement

Hello, I'm needing to change the oil pan on my new engine it's a 408 with 6" rods ! Does anybody know what pan will fit and clear the linkage and also will I be able to use the same starter ! Thanks and she's going to be something else if we can just get over all the little set backs like this oil pan thing !And hopping the hood closes with the RPM Air gap intake ( well got the saw ready if she don't ) :crazy:

Default Re: oil pan replacement (tiger88)

I bought a Champ Pan oil pan (model cp40). It is a 5 quart pan with a trap door that closes under hard braking keeping the oil in the pickup area. It also has a windage screen that helps to clean the oil off the crankshaft. It comes with cadmium plating (gold colored) and is the same physical size as stock.

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention price. Just over USD 120.00 with pickup.
