The lower sump pan on my 3.2's don't quite look like those...
This is more like the correct one.....

They're the same ??? Only the top 4 in my link are for the V6 in rwd config. Only differences are that the one you linked to is used and more expensive and not in stock.

They don't specify shipping, but a quick phone call/email can soon sort that out. Might be able to help with this if they say no.

I'm not quite sure how you are comparing the two sump pans in the two links - are my eyes deceiving me? The drain plug is in a different position and the shape is totally different... the one in my link is identical to both my 2.6 and 3.2 lower oil sump pans.
My link was to identify the oil sump - its then upto VXL V6 where and / or how he wants to purchase one....

Different camera angles, not helped by the used edocks one still being coated with oil ;)

A bit more than different camera angles - they are totally different, dispite the oil coating...
Now your second link is more like it..... :y

I've made the appointment for you both at Spec Savers tomorrow at 11am. You can go together holding hands so you don't trip over anything on the way.... :D

So how are they different? They're all the same shape, with the same ribs, and even have the same odd circular part on the flanges at the front :-\

They even have the same number of bolt holes in the same places. As shocking as that sounds ;D

Your post #2 for the Cadillac 472 sump looks nothing like the correct sump pan I linked to in post #3, or your subsequent post also showing the correct sump at post #6....
11 am tomorrow - don't forget.... ;)

None of the posted links show a BB Cadillac sump?  ???


I suspect I'm the only person here who has actually worked on one of those - when we fitted a 472 into a Monte-Carlo

Perhaps when we go to Specsavers they can verify that the two results for the search are actually brand new Cadillac Catera sump pans, rather than the subsequent plethora of various Cadillac ones ;D

I saw no need to scroll past the two brand new, sub $40 V6 ones that meet the requirement, into the 'fewer matching words' listing  that includes V8 Cadillac sumps.
