Oil Pan

[92prostreetranger]

Hello everyone i have just finished my backhalf and frame boxing on my 92 ranger. I wanted to know what aftermarket pan everyone was using when doing the 5.0 swap. This engine is going to be a "347" strip/ street engine so the the more oil the better. Just wondering thanks for you time. Pics are on the way.

Just use a dual hump oil pan off a mustang gt. I think any 80's car with a 5.0 have these.

So pretty much any dual sump pan will work? I was looking at ordering either these part numbers from jegs 710-20511 or 710-20521 they are both MOROSO pans.

You can get a dual sump pan kit frm jegs from FRPP. They are a stock style pan. I don't know if you want to go too deep on the sump. You will more likely hit the beam mounts for the front suspension. I have the Ford Racing pan and mine is rather close to the suspension mounts.

A bigger than stock dual sump pan won't clear the stock suspension. (Twin I beam anyway) I tried one a couple years back, started with a Hamburgers 9 qt pan, by the time I gave up, it was hardly a 6-7 qt pan and still wouldn't fit. I settled for an extra qt. by using a dual filter mount.

Yours is an 02, from what I'm reading in the thread starter's "handle" he's got a 92 with the earlier suspension like my 89. I hacked the whole front out of the Hamburger pan's rear sump and the result left no room for the pickup tube and it was still hitting the steering linkage or axles, I don't recall which now (been a couple years)

There isn't any room for a deep sump pan. I measured mine; I have 3/8in between the rear sump and the pan. If there is a larger front sump you might have some room to work with but not much.

There's room for more sump in mine, if you added more depth to the middle portion of the bottom. That's about the only way to gain more capacity in a twin I beam Ranger
