Theo (et al),
Funny, I was just about to post the same question, as I am looking for a
pan. I was looking at Cantons, but a friend had some fitment issues
with a canton pan and headers - what kind of manifold or headers are you
running? And which pan do you have? They make a 7 and 9 qt front sump
pan for the 289/302, but I couldn't find any reference to Tigers
specifically. Do you know if the wind age tray will fit a 3.4"
(stroked) crank? The canton website has dimensions, so I suppose I
could measure the header clearance, but I am headerless now, waiting for
the new CAT pipes. Anyway, that would be too easy, better to bomb the
list first, no?
Thanks,
Arnie Sugar

I have a Canton pan (they have a part specifically intended for the
Tiger), along with the windage tray and matching oil pump pickup, and
I've had no issues with fit, leakage, or function, although I haven't
had opportunity to test the functionality of the baffles and trapdoors.
Others are of the opinion that the Aviaid pan is a better product for
that kind of money, so try to get a look at both products if you can
before plunking down your cash.
