Oil Pan?
« on: October 15, 2007, 08:54:13 PM »
I've got a Dooley 10QT pan, the rod flying around in the pan put some dents and a couple of holes in it, I've got a friend that can fix it for $100, but the windage tray and the pick up tube also fell victim to said freewheeling rod. I've read some not too exciting stuff about Dooley pans, is it worth it to spend the money on new parts and repairs, or should I just bite the bullet and get another pan? If another pan is the answer, what do you all recommend?

Thanks

Moroso also makes one with turbo provisions . Chiney chrome . $325 I think. Make sure it's for a jet app. Even if its repaired , it's still a dented up pan .

Theres 2 Keith Eckert pans on hotboat. He is asking $200 OBO and real desperate to sell em. Those are normally around $600 or so. Dooley used to be plagued with leaking issues.

I've heard alot of nice things about Armando's oil pans. They're located in the LA area. If  I was going to buy new, He would be my first choice. I'm personally not happy with the service I have recieved at dooley over the last few years. They have made some very shoddy repairs to my pans. lilrick

Thanks for the advice and the links, Tom @ Jet Boat Performance is hooking me up with a used pan, pickup & HV pump for less than 1/2 of a new pan, he says the stuff is good, cheap is good by me  ;D

Before laying out any money for one of these, make sure it is only 8" deep. Most offshore pans are deeper and will not fit in a typical jet application. If they are the 9" deep pans, they will hit the intake.

I've measured Dooley and Milidon jet boat oil pans for the BBC and they both measured 7 3/4". The Rogers had about 1/2" clearence between the intake and oil pan.

You can do 8" but theres almost "(0)" room at the front of the intake we did this recently with a " 8" hamburger chevy pan but had to grind the front bolts down and use 1/4 -20 stainless flat "spanner" nuts to obtain clearance Tom
