Much betterer than the red. That is a big hole for the oil temp gauge.

I thought you were going to say it was for a turbo oil return.

If you can't make it better why waste your time. No use repeating the orignal mistakes. I'm to old to push it that's why.

I thought Cummins engines were grey.
I guess some are now international red.

Looks like a bent up Easter egg with a drain plug. What part of it is 360?

I like that green. I think i've seen a few DD v16 rig power plants in that colour. These pans are too small. And it definitely looks like a bent up easter egg with a bung or two.
I've actually converted one of my sump plugs to recieve a flow niple. My thought was to run oil to a remoted oil reservoir/volume increasing/cooling tank and then feed it back through the niple eqiuped bung, ex oil sender T piece.
Got al the parts just need to cut up the samll propane cylinder for the reservoir.
Too many fires to fight atm

Very nice! I love Detroits, too. When are you opening up the Dr. Ristow's AMC Performance Shop?

Quick question how have the Harland sharps been working out for you? I was also wondering if they fit under the stock valve covers?
BTW DD green looks pretty good on an amc.
