Oil pan
I'm looking for an oil pan for my LS3. I was just about ready to get the Holley 302-1 but then came across the Mast 401-111. The pan dimensions would work good with either pan for my chassis. They are priced about the same. The Mast pan has a cast in baffle. You have to buy a $200 baffle for the Holley pan. I'm building a street car that could be capable of racing, not a purpose built race car. So I was leaning towards the Mast. Then I noticed it does not have the threaded bolt holes that bolt to the transmission. How critical are those 2 bolts? I am using a QuickTime bellhousing. Any other pros or cons? Thanks.

What car is this going in? I don't have any experience with the Mast pan, but I do have a 302-2 on my LS2. If crossmember clearance is an issue and/or you have a rear-steer front suspecting, the Holley pans are hard to beat. My 302-2 came with a simple bolt in baffle, but I have a feeling you're referring to something more complex.
Sorry I can't answer your actual question.Dude are you made of leprechauns? Cause that was awesome!
01-24-2018 #3It’s going in a 55 Chevy with a Morrison chassis. Any of the Holley pans and the Mast pan should fit just fine. I like the Holley pan but it’s hard to justify adding a $200 baffle for it. Maybe I don’t need the baffle? That’s why I like the Mast pan because it has a simple baffle cast into the sump. But I worry about it not having the bolts for the transmission to bolt to.
