Possible Z11 oil pan??

[lennyjay]

Did GM ever put a part number on the Z11 deep oil pan? I believe it was 9qt and looked almost homemade, but did carry the stock drain plug and internal baffle. I have seen a part number #3816322, but don't know where to look. I will send some photos when I get a chance.


Photos with a stock pan.


Good article from B. Howell, the engineer with hands on.

I believe the real Z11 pans had another bottom sump brazed and soldered on, not a section added.

Bob may have pic of one in the parts photo area.

There are some images of this pan media blasted in my post of 63 revisited...project Z to show the original brazing

The baffle is different also.

Thanks for the input. Looks like I have a modified standard pan. The mod looks ok, and keeps the original plug and upper pan untouched. May use it/may not.....
