I'm putting a 440 in a 1964 Dodge 440, will the mopar Hemi/extra cap wedge oil pan work with this combo?
 
Most later oil pans fit but the passenger side of the K-frame may need a small notch cut out of it. 1/2" by 1/2" should get the job done.

pretty sure you'll have to notch the k-member with that pan. i have a 69 coronet with that pan and i'm sure it won't fit the 65 coronet i have without work. the early b-bodies engine sits about 1 1/2" further forward and is baised a little more to the passenger side.
 
Does anyone make a high capacity, stock appearing pan for the early wedges? What was the best factory pan that will fit with no mods? Thanks

Simple answer,no.The early pan is 5" from the front edge to the beginning of the sump,the Hemi pan is about half that.Here is an origional Max Wedge pan,you can see how far back the sump begins.

Thanks! I better post this here incase anyone else is looking

The Mopar Performance oil pan, part # 5007807, fits the B and RB engines from 1962 to 1965. It is a center sump, 5 quart pan. Also, the matching pick-up tube needs to be bought and used, as well a windage tray.
NOTE:
The oil pan is now available as P5007807AB from Summit Racing. $151.95. [July 2009 prices cited] The full part number of the matching pickup tube is P5007848 for $24.95. (If Mancini Racing is cheaper, Summit will price match them.) This pan is top-notch, with a baffle on all sides of the sump. It comes with a magnetic drain plug, also.

And...

The NEW part number pan fit my 440 and my chassis like a dream...it is lower (to the street, but my engine loves the extra oil). I have never hit or dragged anything with it yet and I do get it out and about. All of the above information was on the Moroso web site...way down in the fine print stuff ...that's where I found it. I have NOT modified my Plymouth’s chassis, steering, or oil pan in any way.
