While I don't have one for sale, I do run a Canton road race pan on my Fox Mustang. The oil now runs cooler, and the pressure variations I was experiencing are now gone.

However, BE SURE to leak test it before installation. Mine leaks along a weld that's impossible to get at once installed. As you know , you can't just drop the crossmember and pan easily on a Fox. It's a royal pain, and mine is one of 3 among friends' cars that I am aware of that leak. It would have been a simple fix, sitting on the workbench.

Also, be sure you are getting the proper pan. A 5.0 and a 302 require different pans.
