Great minds think alike, I was going to go get a couple to lay my hood on upside down for taking it apart, then I spotted the big sheets of bubble wrap from AMD parts, so I rolled them up instead. Mission to Wally World aborted.
Okay full disclosure, lol. I took my original and backup motors apart and just put them back together and they worked. So the motors worked but the unit was not working when installed and mounted. Yup bad ground, looked okay but I sanded away more paint and it worked.
A bigger oil pan is one of the first mods I do to any hi perf engine I build. I try for seven quart capacity at a minimum. Don't always run them full, however.
Giant road race pans are preferred, if they don't interfere with headers or chassis.
Not that long ago some high output marine 4 stroke engines had alarmingly small oil pans, it was to save weight, but they probably figured out that they needed more oil capacity for overall better performance. Today's engines have closer to 6 or more quarts, rather than the four, they used to have.
Hey guys glad to join the forum I just bought 1971 Plymouth satellite about 3 weeks ago .. I am going to try to do majority of work myself as much as I can .. also ill be on here needing advise from my fellow mopar buddies
Left fender off of a 72 Charger. probably an SE as it has top mounted turn indicator. Some surface rust on outside, and some rust on structure above the inner splash shield. $275 buyer picks up. Located in Central Va. If interested PM here.
Thanks for the ad FBBO.
I’ve always thought oil capacity has an effect on cooling. I drive a Camry as a daily driver. It’s a small 4 cylinder and yet it holds the same amount of engine oil as my 68 charger. Always wondered why all the auto manufacturers ran so little oil capacity vs the engine sizes back in the day...
