289 oil pan?

Shawn Custer · Feb 5, 2017

I have a 1966 289 sbf and was wondering what kind of oil pan I need? I will be putting it into a GTforte space frame.

Aviaid makes several variants, GT40, Cobra, wet or dry sump.

Aviaid is the way to go.

Good luck

Moroso 20503 is a good alternative, which I used on my 302 engine

If you are keeping the original crankshaft centerline height, the Moroso will hang more than 1" below the chassis.

I also recommend the Aviad pan. It tucks under (no protrusion) with about 1/2" to spare making my RCR tub totally flat-bottomed.

Looks like Aviaid is the way to go! They make some super low profile pans. Thanks for the info guys!:thumbsup:
