Armando Rodriguez and I have been exchanging emails (he's been good to deal with and responsive) and I'm about ready to pull the trigger and order the pan. Here's what I have:
- Sump depth (1/4" above the bottom of my frame rails): Front - 8 5/8", Rear - 7"
- 20" long sump
- Drain plugs: 1 at front, 1 on the side of the sump, as far back on the driver's side as possible
- 1/2" NPT bung at front for
oil temperature sender
- 3/8" dipstick tube on passenger side
- No puke tank fitting
I have a front timing cover with dipstick provision for my existing front sump pan. It seems to me I could use the one in the timing cover and simplify the pan by leaving off the side dipstick tube, as well as eliminating one more potential point of leakage.
Thoughts?
