Re: Fw: Pan clearance

[Dodger7998@xxxxxxx]

common problem,,,,,,,,there are only certain pans that will work with out  
modification to the k member, ,,,,go ahead and cut a piece out of the k, it will 
 be fine, and since you are just mocking up, you can weld it back if needed,  
usually does not take that much, some people have also used a piece of 1/4 
inch  plated between the insulator and the k member to ge added clearance for 
the drag  link which also come close if you do not use an actual 62-65 pan, 
there is a lot  of information on the site, in the tech part about oil pans for 
our cars

Subject: Pan  clearance 

I dropped my 413 block into my 64 Dodge 440 today. The right  front corner of 
the pan interferes with the bottom (flange) of the K member.  It is a V8 K 
member I ordered engine brackets from Schumacher and they said it  would shift 
the crank centerline to the right about 3 inches, which they do.  Everything in 
the motor mounts line up real good. The pan is an after market  stock style 
pan , and has plenty of clearance every where else. Anyone  familiar with this 
problem? Looks like I could notch and re-weld the K member  flange or dent ( 
ER I mean "form" ) the pan corner. How much clearance should  there be for 
engine movement? Any input is  appreciated.........................MO.........SW
