I'm rebuilding the engine here in a few weeks, and I'm gathering up some parts before the whole project really begins. I am looking at going with ARP main studs, but I am wondering if they will have clearance issues with the oil pan.

Also, anyone know of any distributors that handle LT1 windage trays? I was thinking about adding one of those as well......


TIA.

 

Just curious, are you building a 350 or 383?

I had to clearance my oil pan to clear the rod bolts near the front of the motor on my 383.

 

Just going with a 350/355 for this round (not sure whether I'm going to have to bore or not).

 

No you shouldn't have to touch your oil pan then.
