Re: [Chevelle-list] OIL PANS /// and brackets

[Ed Riggins]

Hi Wayne, Randy:  You will need brackets to fit the vintage small block you install.  One example is the alternator, internal regulator or not.  The early engines mount on one side,
later ones on the other.  Heads are drilled differently, some manifolds have provisions for
brackets, others do not.  These things can be managed, but with mismatched parts getting
pulleys aligned can be a challenge.  My .02.  Ed in SF

 Hi Randy

As for the oil pan.. the stock SB Chevy pan will work A-OK

 

The accessory brackets will not work from your Buick.

You need to track  down early chevy brackets
