oil pan gasket

[terry]

i'm in the process of installing a milodon oil pan on my 360 crate engine,but there seems to be a few different application p/n pending on what brand i check.fel pro seems to list a gasket only up to 1980 but other companys list a different spread in years. now milodon just list one gasket for there pan,is that the safe way to go?
thanks

Terry I believe all the 360's up trough 92 used the same gaskets. In 93 the 360 became the magnum engine so if yours is built on a magnum engine platform it will require a gasket for a magnum 360. I don't know this as fact but I believe the magnum engines are different because I acquired a parts stock from a defunct Dodge dealer and in the bunch is a reusable oil pan gasket that has the same dimensions as my LA 360 but the rear main is slightly different. It's the same size but doesn't fit the rear main cap right. This leads me to believe the magnums are different from the LA's.

Hope this helps, Tracy
