oil pan question

[sy#2921]

Alright i am planning on dropping a built motor in my sy this summer. The block came from a 02 blazer. Will the stock pan work or can i use a second gen 4x4 pan with no problems?

I believe the newer pans had a sump that sits further forward and will hit the frame / front diff, but I'm not 100% sure on that

If the block had a cast pan the bolt pattern is different than the steel pan.

I'm not sure if the cast pan will fit, but I don't see why not.

The '02 block will also be a balance shaft style motor. Which requires a different timing set and camshaft.

Re: oil pan question

the motor is already built and ready to go in once i figure out what i will do about the intake. I moved the knock sensor accordingly and everything. I just need to know what oil pan i need to put on this block so it clears the cross member and diff and what not on the sy
It was originally from an 02 extreme blazer so it was 2wd with the cast aluminum pan

Re: oil pan question

so anyone have an idea if a 4x4 oil pan from the late model truck will clear on this motor in my sy?
