Oil Pan Change
I need some real data and no guessing here.
Has ANYONE installed a Milodon 7qt. (#31130) into a '71 F-250 CS/2wd/4spd/390/PS front sump truck? If so, did it fit or require some mods?
(FWIW, the 32224 windage tray WILL NOT WORK with a stroker engine.)
I know what the Milodon site states but I'm not convinced the pan will work. I pulled some rough measurements from my friends 69 390/auto wo/PS crawling through the mud but I'm just NOT SURE the Milodon pan will work.

I'm concerned over the AMOUNT of clearance between the pan & the X-member. Is it 1/16", 1/2" or ???

Gary, I guess I'm not making myself clear. I already have the pan. What I'm trying to find is the amount of clearance between the Milodon pan and the X-member. I have no way to do a mockup to see what the clearance actually is. The vendor saying the pan will clear is of little use to me.
