Re: 7 Quart Oil pan
Nothing other than factory 5qt pan is going to work with exhaust.
7 quarts is 2 quarts too many on a street car anyway - not worth the exhaust hassle. SBC's been running fine for 50+ years with 5 quarts. The only thing that 2 quarts is gonna get you (besides an exhaust headache) is another $8+ out of wallet when time to change oil.
