Gen3 6.1 oil pan dimensions?

MrSurly · Apr 26, 2019

I’m about to go pick up this 6.1 that I bought and I want to toss together a heavy two-by cradle for the drive... but I don’t have a pan or a gen 3 here to measure. Anyone who has a pan and tape measure, I’d appreciate a minute of your time to get for me the height/width/length of the pan...

Thanks for this!
(Note that I tried to reply before but it appears lost. If this is s duplicate I apologize. I did manage to piece a support together that got it home. The boards ended up 9-1/2” apart but with the aluminum pan, the various gussets around the pan bolts make this method not work as well as with old school stuff.
I got it home, it looks rough like it was dragged through the junkyard on a chain... things broken off for no reason.
I don’t really know what I have, this is my very first gen3. I gambled 1500 on it and as long as there’s no secret disaster inside I’ll come out alright.
