The trick is to get the pan that has the lowest possible depth, fits in the SPF frame and still provides sufficient
oil capacity. There is no crossmember to interfere with the pan so you can use a flat style pan similar to the 12 quart racing 427 S/O pans. Front sump pans that fit Mustangs are built around the front crossmember. There are some shallow aluminum pans but I wanted to dent and not break in case of a scrape so I wanted a steel pan.
The Canton 9 quart marine pan (with filter) is 7.75" deep (18-760) met the requirements.
I installed the Canton windage tray (20-936) using the special Canton windage tray bolts (20-946). The Canton center pickup was also required
(18-761).
