<div dir="ltr">Back in the 50's the aluminum cast oil pan was an important piece . In those days we were not allowed an oil cooler and the pan had more capacity and it also did a little cooling, but it also strengthened the block. The casting is thick and helped stabilize the Tr-3 block. Valuable part in days gone by. I admit I did grind the bottom of the pan on the track in races but always used it for the cooling of the oil benefit (more due to increased capacity than anything else)<br clear="all"><div><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><p><strong><font color="#000099">Never be beaten by equipment.</font></strong></p></div></div><br></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Mon, Sep 21, 2020 at 9:31 AM Brad Kahler via Fot <<a href="mailto:fot@autox.team.net">fot@autox.team.net</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">Thanks all for the replies.

<div>Was there supposed to be a question? I
have your oil pans twin purchased from <span>Ken
Gillanders @</span> British Frame and Engine in late 1980s. Just
checked, looks like new ones go for $600 these days.</div>

<div dir="ltr">I have an old cast aluminum oil sump with part #
301318 cast into the bottom flange. At one time I thought
someone told me that it was an original Triumph produced go fast
part. This particular sump came from a TR3 that was last raced
in the early to mid 70s.
