Yea. They are expensive. I could go wadding through the threads but still not familiar with the search option. Tom at http://www.streetrodengineering.com/ told me I needed a "double sump" oil pan. There are several variations. I would like to find something all inclusive. I don't want to be trying to figure out which pick up I need or where I am moving the dip stick to because the pan doesn't have a provision. These are in order that I think would work.. http://www.ebay.com/itm/360755832893?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649 http://www.ebay.com/itm/251557313055?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649 http://www.ebay.com/itm/400725487530?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649
I would use a Moroso 20533 oil pan. It has billet end seals that will prevent leaking in those areas versus a stamped pan. http://www.moroso.com/eb/catalog/na...oup.111000011012&expand=true&menuId=main.menu

If you're looking for a performance oil pan for drag/road racing applications, then Moroso has you covered! Made with a thick, precision laser-cut steel rail, these oil pans feature a 7 quart capacity that moves oil away from your rotating assembly, offering excellent oil control and horsepower savings. Their race-proven diamond shape, four trap door assembly, and anti-slosh baffles keep your oil contained in the oil pump pickup area during road and drag racing. Moroso drag/road race oil pans have a billet aluminum adapter with a 1/4 in. NPT sensor port that allows a 13/16th thread Moroso or OEM filter to be mounted in the stock location--no need to run a remote oil filter! These pans use a stock dipstick.
Good point but I am a little concerned about clearing the rack. The ones I found have a slight angle and are rounded..
Since I am on a budget and have a ways to go before I know if my car will even come to life, maybe I can get this one and upgrade later.. http://www.summitracing.com/parts/spe-5488/overview/
Yea I know.. I was being sarcastic about the cost cause they are expensive. They look nice also. When I started looking at them I was not thrilled. It is what it is but I am not ready to spend so much on that when I still need other things. I want to get the car on the road before sinking that kind of money on a pan I can change out later. Once I see how things fit and how the car runs I can spend on that kind of stuff..
If budget a concern why not use stock 5.0 Mustang double sump pan that,s what I used on my Falcon with Mustang II it has stick already in pan, fits great.
I used the 7 qt pan (Moroso, I think) and ended up having to redo all the exhaust because of it. Long tubes would not clear the enlarged lower portion. The regular 5 qt one would have been no problem.
Yup, stock is pretty cheap. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Dorman-Products-264-006-Stock-Replacement-Oil-Pan-/400723235634?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&fits=Year:1988|Model:Mustang|Engine - Liter_Display:5.0L&hash=item5d4cf75332&vxp=mtr http://www.ebay.com/itm/Spectra-Pre...iter_Display:5.0L&hash=item4623006c1f&vxp=mtr
Well, I took a 73 pan and bolted it to a 96 block...you just need the proper pick up tube for the oil pump.
I like the Moroso with the kickouts(like in ebay link you listed), the baffling looks great too if you don't plan on carving the corners, and mainly just street car that sees some drag, just get the stock a 302 oil is is a 302 oil pan, only thing you'll have to change would be pan itself and like front timing cover i did the opposite double sump to mav style.. as at the time, I didn't plan to do an MII setup
