Twin-Sump Oil Pans For Fox Body Mustangs
Seven-Qt. Models Designed for 289-347 & 351-410 Windsor
B&B by Stefs has announced their latest twin-sump oil
pans for Fox-body Mustangs with 289-347 and 351-410 Windsor OEM
engines.
A
manufacturer of Sportsman oil pans since 1998, B&B offers these
new 7-quart models each with an appropriate oil pick-up (TIG-welded)
and the necessary 12-point fasteners. The pans, which are supplied
with crank scraper, windage screen, two magnetic drain bungs and a
port for a threaded dip stick (1/4˝ NPT), boast two deep sumps (9˝
rear and 6.5˝ front) and provide stroke clearances of up to 3.550˝
(289-347 engines) and 4.250˝ (351-410 engines).
The four greatest
hazards for a standard wet sump oil pan are high engine speeds, large
engine displacements, small crankcases, and long strokes.
“In a
high-revving engine,” says Joe Stefanacci, head of B&B by Stefs, “the main oil sump with
the pick-up needs to be shielded from the rotating crank assembly. If
not, the pulses from the pistons going up and down and the turbulence
from the rotating crank assembly tend to pump the oil up and down,
making it foam and blowing it away from the pickup. These are the
dangers we’ve addressed with these new B&B oil pans.”
Assigned
part numbers 91605 and 91610 respectively, these jig-welded
shelf-stock oil pans are produced in .055˝ steel, finished in a high
luster black coat, and priced at $434.56. Each oil pan is installed
on an engine block for inspection and leak-tested before dispatch.
