Armando built my pan. Great work. Highly recommended.

tocheck: Tell Armando you want a Cobra-style road racing oil pan for your SBF. It's not listed on the Web page, but he will custom build whatever you want.

I took front and rear oil pan rail measurements on my BBF to a straightedge across the bottom of the frame rails, then subtracted 1/4" to get the bottom of the pan at that level, and that's what Armando built. He also installed drain plugs front right and left side rear in order to properly and completely drain the sump, plus he installed a bung in the pan for an oil temperature gauge, as well as a dipstick fitting.

I almost forgot, the pan will come with a matching pickup. In my case I was switching from front sump to rear sump, so I also needed to change the pump and add a main bearing stud with provision for the pickup attachment.
