External oiling question

RustyRatRod said
Yeah, but who in their right mind would use a 187 stock oil pan on a hot big block?

Chrysler, Dodge and Plymouth cranked them off the assembly line in large numbers, mass-produced.

But then again, their state of mind has been questioned from time-to-time.

And it did not matter, hot or not. It was a design deficiency present in every single one of them.
