Looking for a oil pan for my 6pk motor I think its a 402 pan
'69 cars used the 402 pan. '70-'71 used the 6qt pan.I believe the 402 pan holds 5 qts and was used on 383 motors and low performance 440's while the 440-4 HP and 440-6 used the deeper 6 qt pan which has no stamp number. This is the same pan used on the HEMI, and in addition to holding an extra quart, features a rounded right corner to clear the skid plate on the K-frame.
when i measure pan capacity i fill the pan to the bottom of the windage tray, record the capacity, and call it full.Does any one know the proper method for measuring oil pan capacity? I have a pan from a 1973 400 engine that holds 6 qts to the bottom of the windage tray. So can I use 6 qts in the system? That would be 5 in the pan, 1 in the filter. Thanks
