Title: Cleveland swappers, got a question
Post by: HAVI on October 03, 2010, 10:11:07 AM
I'm looking for oil pan dimensions for the fox body Cleveland swap.  If anyone has a Cleveland oil pan handy to measure, let me know.

They are not cheap, but he wanted the measurements and they give them.

that's the price you pay for an aftermarket swap pan.. they like to make the price of a motor swap expensive :punchballs:

I'm looking at a Kevko pan, but dimensions are needed first, with my homebuilt motor mounts, I need the height right.

I got the moroso pan!! It rubbed on the steering rack just slightly,that was with stock motor mounts (302) with all the loops cut off!! Oh and $330 is cheap compared to $600 for some headers!!!! Good luck! I should have mine in by 2012 if World does not end!! LOL

BITE YOUR TONGUE! lol

swap parts are pricey, for the simple fact that they know people will need them.. only limited companies make swap parts so they raise the price to rake in the cash

I kinda look forward to the world ending, so I don't have to worry about not getting this car done, lol.  Thanks for the links.  I've seen one somewhere, where a guy modified a 4x4 pan, but still need measurements before I start cutting into one of mine, but I prefer buying a pan for simplicity sake.  Who's got $330 I can borrow?

I was selling mine awhile back,but now i got a $2500 dollar shortblock that says"you better keep it" Shoulda went with 351w so much cheaper. I paid 130 bucks for pan,pickup tube,stud,and dipstick from FRPP!! I will keep an eye out for one for your fox 351c swap!!
