As with every oil pan (and valve cover) manufactured by Billet Fabrication,
all of the pan rails and seals are formed from 3/8-inch-thick, 6160
billet aluminum and welded to the .090-inch sheet-metal material used
in the rest of the pan. This ensures much better sealing capability
than the common, stamped-metal rails found on other pans, even after
years of use and countless on-off cycles.
Showing no bias, Billet Fabrication builds these two-piece pans for
all popular Mopar, Ford, and GM engines, with a variety of sump locations
and for just about any chassis design. There are also versions for both
wet- and dry-sump systems. In wet-sump applications, the pickup and
windage trays come as standard equipment.

| This "Ollie" pan was found at the Reggie
Jackson's Performance Engines shop (San Bruno, Calif.), mounted
onto a big-block Chevy and making the bottom-end inspection a snap
during dyno testing. |
As valuable as this time- and worry-saving device can be for bottom-end
divers, engine builders who like to play with dynos are equally thankful
for Ollie technology. Checking the bearings between dyno pulls? Looking
for stray solids in the bottom of the pan? No sweat! Just leave the
tube of silicone and the gasket sets in the engine-assembly area, and
get back to the dyno in record time.
Of course, the silicone manufacturers probably aren't gonna be very
happy about all this, especially after their bad press and loss of business
in the breast-implant industry. But now racers can also answer the question
that women have long been confronted with in shopping for bathing suits:
One piece or two?
 |
| "Baffle Balls," another exclusive innovation
from Billet Fabrication, are much more effective at keeping oil
in the rear sump and feeding the pump during deceleration than the
common "trap door" baffles. Baffle Balls are optionally available
in every Pro-series one- or two-piece pans. |
 |
| This display model of a ball-style baffle
shows the cone-shaped tubes that allow the oil to freely flow to
the back of the pan until the binders or parachute are applied,
which forces the balls to the front of the tubes and seals them
shut. |
