Oil Pan - 971 Stamping - 73 & Later B Body - EXTRA THICK

We have finally reproduced the long sought after "971" pan! Originally sold as Chrysler part number 3614970, this is the ONLY pan which will work in 1973 and later B bodies. Mopar Performance did sell these as a reproduction item for many years under part number P5249063, although they are now long discontinued. They were also sold by Moroso as part number 20765, also now discontinued. Moroso also made them into an aftermarket deep sump version as well. These also fit Mid (1966-72) and Early (1962-65) B bodies as well. Due to the how far back the front of the sump is, this pan allows for more K member clearance than any other pan, also making them a great choice for F/J/M swaps. Schumacher Creative Services uses and recommends this pan for many of their swaps as well. These are about 5" deep and hold 4 quarts of oil, plus one in the filter, for 5 quarts total. They also include all the internal oil baffles, just like the factory made them for HP engines. The original factory 971 pans made by Chrysler were usually made out of steel which was about .049" thick. We've reproduced these in our EXTRA THICK steel, which is about .083" thick, or about 70% thicker than normal. The extra thickness not only helps to keep the pan more rigid and the pan rails straight and flat, but it also helps if you should accidentally scrape the pan on that odd speed bump or driveway. We recommend using our 111-1007 oil pickup if your block has standard 3/8" NPT threads. This pan is supplied in a in a very nice black electroplated finish, the same process used in modern replacement body parts. Can be installed as-is or painted if desired.
