    Part # for the Moroso oil pan?

    I believe my 79 came with the dipstick on the driver's side (I don't have it in my possession to verify); what are the implications of moving it to the passenger side?

    Any thoughts on the likelihood of it fitting on a 79 with headers and Steeroids?
    I'm really clueless on this stuff so I can use any help I can get... would I NEED to change the oil pickup to use this pan/ is it recommended? I could still use the stock pump, right?

    Know whether this pan would still work if I put in a 383 crank and 6" rods? (I think if I get the part # Summit will tell me that...)

    I'm interested, but I just don't know what I'm getting myself into... I'm kind of pushing it with the dynamic compression ratio on my build so I could use a few degrees of decreased engine oil temps that this would offer me.


    Thanks- sorry for all the questions.

    Saw an old post where you had an "air intake" by PaulDana. I wont assume you still have it but how did you like it?

    Rear wheels and leaf spring. DId you run into any problems? Or do you not have the Steel leaf spring in the rear.
