Spectre Performance 5480 Oil Pan for Small Block Chevy

FEATURED Spectre Performance 5480 Oil Pan for Small Block Chevy

  • Triple chrome-plated
  • Steel construction

  • Made from high quality material

Spectre’s Oil Pan was designed for the small block 1955-1979 Chevrolet 283-350 with driver’s side dipstick (except 1962-1967 Chevrolet II). This triple chrome plated oil pan has a stock 4 quart capacity and uses 1975 and later gasket with thick front seal. This OEM replacement will not fit Corvette with stock exhaust.

    * I received it faster than promised — Very nice.
    * Fit guide on Amazon site said this pan fit a 1970 Blazer K5 307CI, but it did not.
    * Pan’s oil baffle interfered with oil pump pickup, and it needed to be modified, by cutting out 3/8 of an inch of excess baffle.
    * Different slope on pan interfered with frame, and it needed to be modified.
    * Drain plug had a very loose fit and leaked, and it was replaced.
    * Different radius on timing chain (front) end of pan. This just requires the newer (post 1975?) “thin” oil pan gasket, but this was not communicated, so the oil pan gasket designed for this vehicle will not work.
    * This Blazer has had oil pans in the past, and none had theses problems, so pans that fit do exist.
    * I made the mistake of saving $20 and paid with hours of extra work and a substandard result.
    * This pan may work for other applications. Measure and compare to the old pan before installing! The difference may look very subtle, but make sure it will not interfere.

    Worked perfectly. Cheaper than a plain painted stock part. Nice touch. Even came with a chrome drain plug.
