'79 & older SBC oil pans

Believe I found out what the orange pan is for '67-'72 C10/20/30. Found one on Ebay. It's listed as p/n 285723. Maybe I should sell it use the $$$ for one that would fit with out questions.

Here is pics of the mock up to see if the pan will clear the front crossmember. Doing so I found out my block side mounts are a no-go. They are '82-'92 F body. But I tried anyways to see how close. It looks close, but until I get the right ones I'll still be wondering. Anyone need '82-'92 F mounts?

Well it looks close but it definitely might work when you get the new engine mounts, that is why I always do mock ups it's the only way to know for sure.

I know, but knowing better to check p/n before jumping on a cheap swap meet deal so the mock ups go easier. This hobby wouldn't be fun if everything fit perfectly on the first try. Now the online hunt is on.

I changed the mounts today to a set of stock rubber units & dropped the block in to make sure the truck pan clears. It does but wouldn't work if I was using a cross over pipe. Now I can try to figure out how to make the poly mounts work.
