Uhh, that makes waayyy too much sense. I checked the spec sheet that Prestige Motor Car had on Gunner's car and it does not specifically say what the make of the oil pan is. But, if it's the same as mine, there ain't no way you can jam 9 quarts in there... safely, that is. Here are some pictures I set up a while ago having to do with the ribs on the side of my block, but you can clearly see my Canton 15-820 in it. It's an easy pan to identify, and no, it doesn't have a part number on it, but Joe will sometimes etch the number next to the plug (he did on mine). Click here for the shots: Pics of Block and Pan
