Great summary. Now that you showed the photos, I remember using the 1970 6 quart Hemi/440-6 pan which came on 1970 B and E-Body cars on my 69 A12 to get a little extra capacity but still look stock. Thanks for going to the trouble to show all the photos.

most c body pans run on a 68-70 b body will have the drag link rubbing the pan, the c body pan is deeper [thicker] in that area of the pan.

Whaaaat? The above statement is false. I have run 187 pans in b-bodies and they don't hit the drag link, ever. And a 66-70 b-body engine to K frame and suspension is the same dimensions.
Yes a 187 pan is thicker than a 402 pan. But a 66-69 hemi pan is thicker than a 402 also. They don't rub the drag link. They fit the car and dont hit anything. I've seen the 187 pan rub on 1965 B bodies, also on the 1966 and up B bodies Me thinks it depends on how old the motor and trans mounts are and the individual cars

They fit the car and dont hit anything. you can say what you want to, I have seen it with my own eyes, more than once, & on different cars. but thats ok, ask Hemi68charger about his Daytona with a c body pan when it had a 440 in it,my own 68 Charger had the same problem.

Thanks all for the input. I am not worried about it in a B-Body. I was asking if it’s OK to use it in an E-Body. Looks like it will be fine. On a side note, I really like the baffles in it. I apologize for the Hijack of your Thread!!!
