Which oil pans work?
So i read a few things about this on the various sites and ran into some confusing data. But I got it resolved.
From what I gathered the best solution is to use a center hump early style 360 car pan. The great thing is we can use a one piece magnum gasket. Unlike the magnumswap site recommendation of cutting the one-piece gasket, which is doable. I just liked the idea of using a full one piece gasket. The Felpro part has a nice two-sided front end that acts like a slash guard. It captures the oil pan on either side.
To make it work I welded small metal tabs filling the gaps in the 360 pan. I ground down the welds and then used a small dab of silicone at the corners to make up for any imperfections in my welding. All done and perfect. It seals so much better then a multi-piece gasket.
Any 5.2/5.9 magnum can use an early 360 pan. Ma switched to make the pans the same on all the magnum V8's.
