Good afternoon all
I thought I'd try the lovely people on this forum for advice.
Where is the best place for a perfect fit a new Oil Pan. As most corvettes mine has been pretty bashed.
As always I needed it yesterday 😆
Thank you

Claremont Corvette have a used onehttps://www.corvette.co.uk/engine-2/1965-1974--gm-3977591-c2-c3-big-block-oil-pan-used-fair

I read that you said new but I ignored that bit

Thank you I have seen that one. My old one is in the same "used" state as that one 😆. Good to have options and thank you for your reply 😊

Real Steel list Mr Gasket chrome oil pans for BBC engine @ £170 on their web page......whether they are 'on the shelf' is another matter. If buying an aftermarket oil pan things like dip dick tube mounting can be problematic.......mine came with a new dipstick and tube........and it read far too high compared with stock, creating major issues at the time.
One of Real Steels Lokar billet dipstick assemblies is a good investment.

Thank you Ross for you're reply. They look nice and shiny 😆. None in UK stock but apparently 4 in USA. Will get in contact with them. Thank you for the information 🙏

Fail that, contact Gavin @ EMC or Keith @ Eurovettes.
Thank you. Keith has been my guardian angel with sourcing my ceramic headers and I've dropped him a line about the oil pan. Just thought I'd help the search.
Fingers crossed I will get my car back on the road this year 😃 😊.
