Product Details
Features
- Steel oil pan with chrome finish for a clean, classic engine bay look

- Fits Chrysler LA small block 273/318/340 — not Magnum engines
- Drain plug included; gasket, dipstick & pickup sold separately
Description
Add a clean, finished look to your Chrysler LA small block with this steel oil pan in a chrome finish. Built as a 4-quart, front-center sump, wet-sump pan (not baffled), it's designed to match the fitment of the original LA-series small block — not the later Magnum generation (1992+).
This pan includes a drain plug (1/2"-20 thread) but does not include a gasket, dipstick, oil pick-up, or windage tray — these should be sourced separately or reused from your existing setup if compatible. Always verify your specific engine generation (LA vs. Magnum) before ordering, since the two use different pan and pickup designs.
Applications
Fits Chrysler Small Block "LA" V8: 4.5L/273 in³, 5.2L/318 in³, 5.6L/340 in³. Common on Dodge Dart, Plymouth Barracuda/Duster, Dodge Challenger/Charger, Plymouth Road Runner, and other A-body/B-body/E-body Mopar applications using the LA small block. Not compatible with "Magnum" engines (1992+ Chrysler small block generation).
Installation
Verify your engine is LA-generation, not Magnum, before ordering — the two use different pan and pickup designs. Gasket, dipstick, oil pick-up, and windage tray are not included and should be sourced separately.
