Oil Pans for Your Pantera

bdMember

Jack DeRyke has written an excellant article on Pantera oil pans for the Oct. 2002 POCA newsletter. There is one issue that I would like to point out though. I have the Aviad oil pan installed on my 71 Pantera. It was sold to me (by a Pantera vendor that will remain nameless)as a 10 qt. pan. Once installed, I found that it really was an 8 qt. pan that I was expected to add two extra quarts to. It seems to me that the two extra qts would make the "oil rope" phenomena around the crank shaft that Jack discusses in the article even more likely. I question the wisdom of adding extra oil in this case. The vendor claimed that all 10 quart Pantera oil pans are 8 quart pans with two extra quarts added.
