Who's oil pan the best
 

I need new oil pans for my 540ci Dart blocks. There are so many avaiable. The application is Blown with dual quad and intercoolers. Who has the best for the least amount of money. Who is selling them and who has the best price onb the net. These are brand new Dart 540's

Cast Aluminum. They are not cheap. But hey, you did say brand new 540's!!! Keith Eickert or if you can find them, Merc made some really nice cast pans for the old bulldogs.

CANTON would be next

Really. I had steel and i thgt were very good. The aluminum disapate the heat better i assume. How about steel what do you think. are they all the same pretty much or should i go with who's

Second reason Keith originally designed his pan around the casting, was strength. Especially in the mounting rail area's. Can't speak for others, but the Teague pans have a really nice bolt-in sump area. Pics don't do it justice.
Disclaimer: These are offset Cat pans. Don't know who builds them for Teague. Perhaps Canton.

Dan Olson builds a verry good pan.

+1 on the Canton pans.

Get their pickups also for your oil pumps.

The canton dip stick tube assm is great but would like a locking style stick for the inside

Whatever you get, get at least a 10qt capacity with windage trays. I have the eickert, nice pan with rear kickouts on the sides.
