Sealing a performance oil pan starts with a gasket engineered to match it. Moroso's one-piece oil pan gasket for the Ford 289/302 eliminates the multi-piece puzzle of cork corners and rubber end seals, replacing it with a single steel-reinforced unit that Moroso has verified for compatibility with their own oil pans. Two fitment options cover both early and late small-block cores, so the gasket seats flush the first time.
Steel-reinforced, one-piece construction. A traditional multi-piece gasket set introduces potential leak paths at every joint. This one-piece design removes those failure points entirely, and the steel reinforcement keeps the gasket from crushing, extruding, or shifting under the clamping load of the pan bolts.
Verified fitment for Moroso oil pans. Moroso developed this gasket specifically to pair with their own oil pan lineup. Rather than sourcing a generic replacement and hoping it seals, builders working with a Moroso pan get a gasket that has already been confirmed to work with the pan's sealing surface and rail geometry.
Early and late model options available. The small-block Ford 289/302 block was produced with two distinct oil pan rail configurations. Select the early model option for an oil pan core with a dimpled rail, or the late model option for an oil pan core with a smooth rail. Choosing the correct option ensures a proper sealing surface contact from edge to edge.
