That looks like the correct pan.

I hope but I am not sur because of the oil pan front and the K member.... I will see  ;)

News  :)

The SUMMIT crankcase special 440 CI is on top, it just goes into the K-member and the planimetry is really perfect. :twothumbsup:

Yes I ordered the rear main seal at 440 SOURCE (A best quality than the original).

I will change it before going up the crankcase.

The problem is that the package is blocked by the French customs because it misses the invoice in the envelope. :verymad:

Just for pleasure (mine !!!)  :), one before and an other one after ... ;)

I love it  :inlove: :inlove:

What do you think about the difference between both ?

I had the same issue as OP. I went with the Summit Hemi pan, pickup, there one piece gasket/windage tray and a weld on skid plate from Herb's.  The gasket/windage tray is a hard plastic that needed too be trimed  for the pickup tube to be set properly. That was my only issue with the install.  :bigthumb:

You did it exactly as I would suggest... The gasket with the tray is an excellent piece & the skid plate is good to protect the slightly deeper oil pan...

Does the center link fit ok?
Fit fine, no issues. 1/4 inch clearance minimum lock to lock.
