I'm working on a 1962 Chevrolet that I bought for $50. I also have a good carbureted 368 and Turbo400 transmission that I'm installing. It's perfect for me because it's plenty of power for cruising AND I get the filling effect a big-block has on an engine bay. My question is about the oil pan. The engine came from an '80 Fleetwood. The sump on the pan appears to be a "rear" sump pan, but it doesn't want to clear the K-member on the truck. I've heard talk that some sort of Eldorado oil pan really fits the bill for a "true" rear sump pan. Which year pan/pickup tube should I get? Is it a simple bolt-on job? Thanks.

Really just wondering which year Eldorado oil pan is considered a "true" rear sump pan. I need the most clearance possible in the truck. I've heard the Fleetwood/Deville "rear" sump pan is really a mid-sump pan.

I have a pan and sump that i am selling from a 1970 eldorado. Let me know if you are interested. The pan has been chromed. THanks. Deville@jeliason.com

How much for the pan and pickup tube? I'm looking for one don't care for chrome but depends on price.

thanks,
Eric B.
