Flat railed oil pan 383

[7DCUDA383A]

I have a stamped 402 oil pan now but I want to use the molded windage tray from Summit , the only thing is the dual ribbed gasket on the windage tray , to me , doesn't seem to work with the 402 oil pan with dimples , I looked but not sure if there is a flat railed 5qt pan out there , any out there for a 383 727 .

I know there are guys who have used that gasket/windage tray combo on stock pans with success. Moroso pans do have a flat gasket surface but not in a stock looking pan.

Does someone make a flat surfaced pan in a 5qt . that you know of , maybe 6qt .

The gasket/windage tray will work with the stock pans just fine. Believe it or not, the dimples help with sealing. 440 Source sells a nice 6 quart oil pan.

I just tried to test fit the tube and pan , looks like the tube is crooked , I have done it twice , any info on these , it's in the center of pan I think , hard to do on the ground.

Yikes, that's a bunch off level. Is that a straight tube pickup?

You might consider a different pickup......

Is it reasonably level with the block rail at "any" point of a thread revolution?

The longest point from the rail is 4.25 in and the shortest is 3.5 , I know it says the tube can make contact at the bottom of pan but the part that sucks is like an inch of the bottom of pan .

I wouldn't use that pickup as is. Bending the bottom to conform might breach the screen and allow too large of particle into the pump and lock it up.
I might try bending the tube a bit out of the engine. I'm not suggesting you try that though.
Maybe someone else has dealt with this and will chime in.

I emailed the pics to Mancini , I am a Mopar fan but not a mechanic with years of knowledge but understands car stuff .
