What did you buy for your G body today? [2019]

[TURNA]

Please be sure to give us a review of the oil pan when you receive it. I will probably just use my GM original, but I can get this pan through my work for $144 delivered, so it could be an option. It's more than I want to spend on it, but we'll see...

Ok the pan came today

Took it out of the Summit box to find a Milodon box. So far so good......

First thing I look for on the box is a MADE IN USA............and it's no where to be found.

I am a little more than disappointed.

Did I just pay 3-4 times more for another China pan?!?!?!?!?!

I think I may order the zinc pan off ebay for 58 buxx and compare them

I'm not to happy with it at all

Crappy zinc coating and I'm not sure about the drain welds

The spare Summit Chinesium SBC pan looks better quality that that one.

I thought you were being picky, until I looked at the pictures. For what you probably paid, that is pos!

I called Summit and told them that this pan is a POS.

They are sending me a new Milodon to see if this one was a fluke or if they are all POS's.

If the new is no good, then I'm orfering the 58 dollar ebay one.

I ordered this splice for my lower rad hose. The 2" lower hose I have is curved to miss the idler arm but the hose to the water pump in pointed down, this will let me cut the hose and rotate it up for the pump....

Original GM it is for me... thanks for posting your thoughts, and being the guinea pig again. I know this is frustrating to not be happy with products you paid hard earned money for, but it will help others decide for themselves, and for that I'm thankful. 👍

Bought (last night) -6 AN PTFE hose & fittings for the pump to carb line.

Mechanical oil pressure, electric trans temp and dual A-pillar gauge pod. Because I have trust issues.
