GM Fan, if it has the 2 piece rear main seal, and is the pre-1986(?) style the regular V8 Monza pan. If it is an one piece seal then you will have to modify one that fits that block (see V8Monza.com for measurements) or you are in to aftermarket pans (Kevco or others(?)) There is also a few variants between the early 2 pc. and the one pc. Some others will weigh in with more details. Harry

Its a 1 piece rear seal and its a factory gm crate engine . I would like to buy one if possible. Yes I can fabricate one but really dont have the time, and I would probably guess they are not cheap! thanks
