oil pan question E7TE

I have a "E7TE 6675 bb" oil pan on my 460. It's supposed to be from a van and hold 7 qts of oil, that's according to the prev owner. I could only get 6 qts of oil when indicating full on the dip stick. Any help with this is appreciated

Most 87 460's only held 6 qts. That is an 87 pan.

E7TE-BB = E7TZ-6675-A >> 1987/91 F250/350 ~ F Series Truck ** NOT ** Econoline.

>>> E7UE-AA = E7UZ-6675-A >> 1987/91 Econoline

Econolines since 1975 have all had reverse sump oil pans.

The sump is at the rear of the engine.

All 4WD's need a reverse sump to clear the front axle.

This is why the Econoline 302/351W/351M/400 and 460 oil pans are so popular among engine swappers.

The Econolines have reverse sump oil pans. The F100/350 2WD's don't.

Want to install a 460 in your F150 4WD? Use the Econo pan and pickup tube.

At one time, the only choice was to use the Econo pans.

Nowadays, you can buy aftermarket kits with a reverse sump pan & pickup tube.

Ah, by reverse you mean rear. Stuck in the 70's, aren't you. You can also use rear sump pans from early 80's up trucks.

Not reverse... REAR vs front sump. (BIG reservoir area that holds most of the oil that the oil pump pickup rests in to always be able to draw oil from)
