Reply to "Kevko Oil Pan big enough ?"

Garth is the third person I've heard of who lost bearings from an improper oil pan on a Pantera. There are three stock Ford pans and the best of them- the Boss pan, is useless unless you never corner over 0.5 g. One aftermarket '10-qt pan' was found on a motor with a thrown rod that was just a deep bucket with no baffles, scrapers or trap-doors. Possibly built for drag racing which is the wrong game.

Armando worked for Aviaid for many years so no surprise the pans look identical. Aviaids are good enough to be used everywhere- street, roadrace and endurance. Dennis Quella sells an Aviaid-copy in aluminum to save 4 lbs. I think Armando will also do this. Performance engine rebuilds are $6000-up these days; Aviaids are $600. Good luck....
