Wolf,

Thanks ... my engine builder recommend it, looks nice.

It is an Aviaid pan, here is the description:

AVIAID 155-55355
SBF - 289/302, front sump, original 289 Cobra
Length: 15"* Depth: 7 1/2"* Width: 12"* Quarts: 8

It is the lowest point, except for the very bottom part of the QuickTime bell housing, that extends down maybe 3/4" lower, at the bottom containment bolt.

Once I get the car running, have it aligned, height adjusted and corner weighted, I'll take another look. I know that ERA recommends the Lakewood bell housing be trimmed ... but to me, this one looks like it will be ok. I'll have to get it up on a rack and take some more measurements.

-Tim
