Re: Porterbuilt Dropmember
The challenge with this concept is there is limited room to begin with at the rack/pan and the engine to firewall clearance.
We have made some adjustable mounts in the past, and have no problem doing so as a per request item at an additional charge, but have no plans to offer them standard as part of the kit. Nate

Re: Porterbuilt Dropmember
Maybe if the Holley pan works,... PBFAB could become an "authorized dealer" for them,...
and include them in a kit with the LS style Dropmember mounts. Would this help resolve the issues of the various LS style oil pans?

Re: Porterbuilt Dropmember
Is there any clearance differences between the mild and and extreme dm and pan/rack? I'm planning on running the mild when funds allow but just about ready to pull the trigger on the Holley pan.

Re: Porterbuilt Dropmember
Thanks Nate! Just for clarification, if I order the Holley 302-2 pan I'll be good with a Mild DM?

Re: Porterbuilt Dropmember
Ive looked at the F body oil pan and the Holley oil pan. It seems that the Holley is 2 inches shorter in height. Is this helpful with the extreme drop member? Just curious, because the holley runs 350 and need to buy extra stuff versus the f body at 150 with everything.

The F-body pan does require a new pick up tube, but the windage tray can be modified to work. Nate

Re: Porterbuilt Dropmember
I may be wrong, but the F-body pan depth is only 5" per this diagram...
http://southernperformancesystems.co...imensions.html This link has the dimensions of just about all the pans for this particular application... |

Re: Porterbuilt Dropmember
This is what I got on my Gen V from Jegs:
Chevrolet Performance#809-12495360 Oil Pan 1991-96 Big Block Chevy Gen V/Gen VI 4-Quart Sump Depth: 8.03" Fits early model Chevelle/Camaro I am in the process of finishing the motor. Once that is done then I will go on to doing the Porterbuilt DM. My goal is to lay frame and I am hoping this pan will work. Take care. 1967 Stepside |

Re: Porterbuilt Dropmember
Here's what I am going to do.... Over the next several days I will put together a write up that shows which pans we recommend and what components will be needed for the conversion. This is something I have been working on for the site (just been waiting for our wholesale account to be approved so that we can sell the parts straight off our site).
I will make sure to get some good info together! Nate

Re: Porterbuilt Dropmember
Question about my Mild DM motor mounts...
I have the SBC mounts (new in packaging) but I'm contemplating putting the 468 out of Chubby into Walt. What mods are involved in going to BBC...or anyone interested in trading ![]() Thanks, |

Just another extreme drop member pic. Finally got it rust protected and installed. Great product Nate and your welders are flawless!
