Does anyone know if any company makes oil pan reinforcement rings or rails for big blocks. I know they make them for Chevy and Ford motors. Metal rails that go between the pan bolts and pan to help keep even pressure on gaskets.

I read over on Mopars that said AR Engineering has some in the works. I don't know if there is something currently available.

My 383 magnum "403" pan is leak free after 38 years. Dual gaskets, with windage tray and pan, and nothing but aviation gasket sealer on them.

My MP rear sump pan didnt leak with my summit molded windage tray, however at 15ft lbs (the spec I found for pan bolts), the bolt holes became distorted. I'm going to modify the pan for a different dipstick while I am "recovering". from having some nerves in my back cauterized. I was going to buy a different pan, but noting else I have found would clear my R&P.
