Moroso Oil Pan and dipstick
I checked my dipstick and it shows that there's no oil whatsoever. I put 5 quarts in the new motor.....what's up? I'm I supposed to more than 5 quarts? I'm getting a oil light...and I'm thinking maybe this is related. I just started up the new rebuit motor today BTW. Thanks!

Turns out that it takes 6 and 3/4 quarts of oil to fill a rebuilt B18C with the Moroso oil pan. Now that's a lot of oil!

I once had that oil pan, however the dipstick didnt work with. IMO its a waste of money, POS and so are all their other products for imports. I have had bad experiences with all of their products. IMO use the stock pan.

Re: Moroso Oil Pan and dipstick (saso)
The Moroso pan is OK imo.. Although I definetly see why some people think it's a pos. The thing that I hate about it is how oil pressure goes to nearly ZERO on hard left turns and hard braking.. Has anyony solved this problem by modifying the pickup? I wonder if welding a plate over the opening so it's not so large would do the trick...?
When I change my oil/filter.. It takes 6 qts to fill it up..

I though you weren't supposed to run synthetic on a new or rebuilt engine...

Re: Moroso Oil Pan and dipstick (ek9t)
Well I only said that cause once I bought a control arm from them and it broke in mid run at the weld, I could have died!! Thats after the oil pan that sucks. So I have a reason, thing is many new companies advertise new stuff cause they wanna get into the market and reap the $$$ but they dont test their products enough. This has happened to me with many products but I wont go on to say who , I doh wanna embarass anyone. However I would like to see a post about products that dont work.
