Stainless Steel oil pans
Anyone know a manufacturer of stainless steel oil pans for Chevy 350 marine engines?
|
How about polished aluminum ? Summit racing may know where you can get a ss one.

Go over to the off shore only site. I am sure you can find something there.

Thanks for the tips, guys.
|
Did you find one? I haven't been able to. I tried Milodon and Jegs. It might be cheaper to sandblast a good steel one (like a Milodon) and get it galvanized?

A good friend of mine has an older Albemarle 24 and has been leaking oil into the bilge. Checked it out the other day and the oil pan is rusted through. We were simply looking for some options. Only found aluminum and, of course, steel pans. I think he's gonna get a steel pan and put some rubberized undercoating on it. He has no plans of getting rid of it and wanted to get as much life out of the new pan as possible. He frequently fishes the Gulf Stream.

If he puts anything but paint on the oil pan, make sure he has water cooling in his oil system. Almost anything put on the oil pan acts like insulation and keeps the oil from cooling down properly. Adding an oil temp gauge is easy and can save him an engine.

Wouldn`t have processed through my cobweb haunted head. Good call CD.
