which oil pan for a460 block?

Is there any issues with the moroso Eliminator-1 pan fitting on the a460 block? What about the canton drag race pan?
Thanks

most typical off the shelf pans will require some fitting of the pan or machining of the outer edge of the caps to fit from my experiance.

What Dave said is correct.
The part # will depend on the chassis the engine is going in.

have you thought about getting one of Lem's custom pans ?

Im having to exchange my canton pan kit in from where i bought it from. I was told that the Moroso #20625 wouold fit just fine. I figured i would check with u guys also. Oh, trust me i would of gotten one of Lem's pans but i already had this one and just got my block friday.
Thanks

Not exactly. The Moroso steel pans 20625, 20614 and 20620 all use the same pan rail. On my last engine I had to have the 3 4 bolt caps milled for clearance. The pan would sit down on the block, but the caps kept it from lining up with all the bolt holes. You can either dent the pan at those locations to make it fit or do as I did and get the main caps milled. Took .050 off the side of each 4 bolt cap. Made the 20614 pan fit.

Wow David,
Maybe you missed your calling. Instead of a race car driver, you should have been a photographer!
Nice detail.... Keith

I had my machinist do what David did,and it worked just fine.

Ok, sounds good to me. I may just carefully touch them with a die grinder before i send it to the machine shop.
Thanks alot men.

pay the 50 bucks and let them mill the caps

Be sure to keep the cutting 1/16"-3/32" above the pan rail.
