Speaking of oil pans.....

[TylerCharger69]

The oil pan on my new 440 is stamped "933"  and the one on the original 383 is stamped "402".  The 440 pan is kinda toasted and I wondered if the 402 would fit without any troubles.....There is a windage tray on the 440 if that makes a difference....Thanks all....Ace

Sure, the 402 will swap over no problem....i would use the pickup that matches the 402 pan and the windage tray.

Well...now there are differences in the oil pick up tubes....the 440 one has a pretty straight shaft as the 383 pick up tube has kind of a curvy shaft....I think it may be shorter?  But I'm definately using the windage tray!!!  Thanks for the info so far!!!

I have the original 402 pan and pick up in my 69 and the pick up tube has a bend in it.

Yep, those pans use different oil pickups....so match the pickup to the pan. It will bolt onto your 440.....no worries.
