5.7 Hemi swap on the cheap Tips and tricks inside.

Running a modified truck pan I'll post that up when I get it made. I'm basically taking my 318 pan and mating it to the truck pan I have and seeing how well that works out. Jeep manifold are a total go on it Car manifolds are a tight fit but from what I've seen they clear. I'm ordering a set of BBK car shorty's in the next couple weeks so I can report how they fit then.

I don't think anyone can modify a pan any cheaper than this, including time and tig welding. And that is counting time to "solve" the placement for the pickup tube. If not correctly placed you can foam the oil and starve the motor of lubrication. $204.95
STREET SUMP, ENGINE SWAP Allows the new, high tech Hemi to be installed in 1959-1974 A, B, C, and E body cars. While the Mopar crate motors come with a rear sump pan, that pan will not fit in mid-sump muscle cars. This pan provides a custom fit around the K-member and the drag link and provides an increased power design. Increased oil capacity and oil control are an absolute requirement to handle the demands of higher RPM and increased horsepower. Oil control baffles 100% subdue any unwanted oil movement which results in consistent oil pressure and increased power output. This pan uses the stock dipstick location in the side of the block. While a stock windage tray can be used, the Milodon version is improved and will yield better oil control and power output.
