BBM/Hemi stocker oil pan
I would like to know if I should order the BBM/Hemi oil pan from Moroso PT# 19760 or Milodon PT# 19760? What is everyone using? Pro's? Con's?

Classification guide only gives 2 different part numbers, you cant use just any stock looking pan can you?

Phil,
I posted the info to help someone that might read the thread,and also experience from using the E-body pan. The Moroso pan fits allcars without notching the K-member. |

Chris,
It's a real pain in the ***** to check bearings unless you notch the K member and the bearings need to be checked quite often. I guess if you don't have one of these cars you probably are not aware of that though. The pan you are recommending is listed as a 4 quart capacity. Do you think that is wise considering the RPM Tom is going to be turning? This is not a warmed over 440 in a street driven Dart. Tom, If you use one of those pans you are asking for trouble. Take a look at the factory Nascar pans, They are available on ebay once in awhile. You are going to want to notch the K member for clearance no matter which pan you end up buying. Do not buy one from my buddy in Waldo Florida, He will sell you the ebay one I listed and charge you $300.00 for it. Been there done that. Good luck on your project. |

Yep,I have a B-body car and a a-body with 440's.I can pull both pans by dropping the idler arm. Moroso has a 5 qt Hemi pan as does Milodon.

73 and 74 B Body is a Bear to find 6 quart that fits unless you move
engine back a inch or two. Anyone have any experience? |

68-7000 when we used to race it..why??

Re: BBM/Hemi stocker oil pan
Well because a Hemi needs to be spun over 8000rpm and I doubt a 5 quart pan has enough capacity. Also the 62-65 K member is different than the later model units which brings us back to the fact that Toms K member is going to have to be notched so the oil pan will fit therefore he should just get the larger capacity unit and done with it. This is assuming his car has the early K member still installed. It cost at least 20k to build one of these engines and I sure would not recommend he use a stock type 4-5 quart pan.
Tom, Please let us know what you end up using. |
Re: BBM/Hemi stocker oil pan
If it's a stock eliminator car,you can't run more capacity,and that's where I was going with this.

There's a whole lotta Stockers that can go 8,000+/- RPM and they are supposedly using the factory pans per the rule book. And I don't see in the rule book that you can notch the k-frame because why would you need to if you were running the stock pan, per the rules?
And if 5 quarts isn't enough, the rulebook does allow the use of an Accu-Sump. Or maybe 3 quarts in the pan, 1 quart or so in the filter and 3 quarts in the Accu-Sump...:eek: |

Over fill the pan and use an accumulator to bring oil level down. My engine has never seen 8000 rpm, in fact I have a 9000 rpm tach. and the top third of it is never used.
