Any Drag race oil pans for LT1 out there?

I have been running a stock pan for ever. Its got a dent in it now. It would also be nice to get another quart in or so in there. From what i read canton and moroso are pretty much the pan of choice. I know the canton is labeled as a road race pan. Not sure on the difference but my big block buddys always tell me about more power in the pan.

whats available?

I have a 8qt. road race pan. It didn't really fit and I also have a tube k-member .....so I had to do the BFH mod, it works now.


The others i'm sure fit alot better

I have a Canton pan...I had issues with it and the stock k-member. When I bought the BMR k-member, I had then lower the powersteering rack 1/2" to clear and it worked out fine.

I do not know you piping situation, but with my Kook's headers I had to remove my low oil sensor.

I have a Canton also with hitting the steering rack issues.
Use this link and scroll down to the 242t, 244 and 246 pans.
http://www.cantonracingproducts.com/...road_race.html

I have the 246 which is noted with the fitment issue, the 242t will clear and are nice pans. Also under "oil pans" on ebay all the time direct from Connecticut.
Many have posted the "low oil level" light issue. I have that too. Intend to tie the sensor wires together and use my dipstick

My 242T fits like a glove, little close at the steering rack but there is still room.
