340 Oil Pan

What's the correct numbers stamped on the bottom of a TA Challenger oil pan ?

Great Thanks You

I’m pretty confident that 294 pans are correct for T/A motors. I’m away from my references but can post some supporting info later.

Basically nothing special for a 340 oil pan that wasn't also on the 318.

Agree that pan is not special. It’s my opinion that MMC is a bit off on the timing of 394/294. I think 294 is correct for 70-71 340s including T/As.

I’m definitely NOT suggesting that a 294 is a “T/A oil pan”. The gougers will feed off such a suggestion

so if I change it I should go with the 294 pan ?

If you care about numbers, I’d use a 294 on a T/A motor. If numbers aren’t a big deal, a 394 will work just as well.

Even though MCC says differently, I agree with Floyd, as he has never steered anyone wrong!
