460 oil pans

Post by M-100 »

I have a 460 for my f250 that some gobber put a 350 motor in . I like the truck but I can't take that engine anymore. So I bought a van with a 460 and found mounts from a dentside. Will the van oil pan work ? I would like to use it since I already own it.

The van has a rear sump. that's needed for a 4wd.
I'm not sure if it'll fit a 2wd.

I have a van pan on mine. Fits great and the drain plug is in the right spot.

I have been trying to find out on the interscreen some said it would work and others said it would not. Thanks 70 for clearing it up.

This pan is from an 84 E350. Its not as close as the pictures make it look. It has a very deep sump. 6 quarts. Must use the dipstick that came with it.
