8RT Oil Pan and starter plater
 

I have a 8RT starter plate and pan on my 8BA. I went on Van Pelts site and I'm missing some pieces. The main part is 8RT-6410 which looks like it bolts up to the block. Is that correct? Is this part and all the seals & bolts available?
Thanks, Joe

It does bolt up into the block. The 2 long bolts replace the 2 normal pan bolts straddling the rear seal. 6410 is NLA, as far as I know, but the rubber seals that it carries (to shield the short section of crank behind the seal in the pan) are available, I think from Mac VP.

Anyone have the bolts or an idea for a replacement?

I'd start at the local hardware store.

Does anyone know the thread size?

5/16"nc, 3/4" longer than the holes in the shield should be right.
