351 oil pans!

bigredstang · 05-25-2001, 10:20 AM

I am buying a used oil pan for a 351 in a 95 but its from a fox body (88 I think). Are they the same?

Thanks
Greg

I'm not sure what you mean. Do you have a 95 that your putting a 351 into? Or is it a 88? Either way Canton and Moroso make the good pans for the 351 Windsor swaps. I doubt that the 351 pans differ but I'm not exact.

I think it should fit. You may want to call Saleen. They've actually done it. I'm sure they'll tell you what you need to know.

Oh, yeah oil pans,
Hell yes a pan out of a 88 with a 351 should fit without any problems. I pulled my pan off of a Bronco,and my second pan is off of a Fairmout. One thing to remember though the high volume pumps will not fit in the stock pan. So don't waste your time there unless you have a few extra minutes.
I shimed my pump spring up .030" and I have 60 pounds at an idle and 120 at 6800. Remember rule of thumb 10# for each 1000 rpms this is a reccommended minimum.
