    We use Canton 15-610 front sump on the 306/347 (Ford block) and 15-680 front sump on our 427 (Dart block). I can't personally verify that they work in the roadster yet, but FFR specified these for the engine a builds and I haven't heard of any customers having issues with them.

    I would highly recommend Gordon's pan. If you read through old threads you'll see numerous discussion on oil leaks with various pans. His pan (made by Champ Pans) fits perfect and doesn't leak a drop. It's also priced fairly.
