Rear sump 390 and rocker shaft spring question
I just did a 390 rebuild and i am putting it in an 85 f250. I am in desperate need of a rear sump oil pan but i cant seem to find one in my area. I always order parts for it using the 74 f100 with a 360 4wd. I know for a fact that truck came with a rear sump oil pan because i junked one about 6 months ago (kickin myself in the ass for that one). All the parts stores around here list it as a front sump. Ebay has all front sumps. Except for the occasional ft pan. Where can i find a brand new rear sump oil pan and pickup also where can i find a main bolt that has the stud on top for the pickup to bolt to. Can anyone even give me a part number? Second question is about the shaft mount rocker system. I bought new shafts and 427 adjustable rockers. The problem is the spacer springs. Most of my old ones are broken in like 3 pieces. No one seems to be able to order these either. Does anyone know where i could get them or should i switch to spacers and shims. Please help.

the rear sump pans are hard to come by. from what i heard. you coudl try the parts wanted section. oor go junkyarding if nothing turns up. does ebay still have the wanted section? you could post in there too.

Jegs has the rear sump pans, as for the rockers i put the spacer shim set up from precision oil pumps, on Ebay ...with the stands and end stands for strenth.

jegs only lists the front sump i think i'm gonna go with those spacers for the rockers if it adds strength thanks.
