    C2 Part # Needed

    Does anyone happen to have a current part number for an engine oil pan drain plug and another for just the gasket? Groups 1.428 and 1.456. Thanks...

    Michael,
    Regarding the drain plug gasket: I used a white plastic NAPA universal gasket when I put the engine back together for my '65. It looked like the original but seemed to want to weep for a long time.

    The current gasket from GM is P/N 14090908. It does not look like the original, but it has a great little seal around the hole that should provide a leek tight seal.

    Regards,
    Gene

      Thanks Gene, that's exactly what I needed. I finally changed the oil in the 66 and the drain plug has been dripping about once an hour ever since, even though it's properly torqued to specs. I KNEW I shouldn't have changed the oil ! It's all Dukes fault.

        After you change it, you need to DRIVE it. The engine needs to get hot and seal that gasket.

        If you want, since I know you never drive them anymore, I'll volunteer to excercise the '66 for you once a month.

          Hi Mike,

          After a long five year nap, the 425 HP is back "on the road again"! Spent almost a month repairing all of the misc things that happen to cars when they sit for a long time but finally had it out to terrorize the neighborhood again. I've learned a lesson about allowing cars to sit for long periods with todays fuel, especially in the Florida heat. It's just not logical to live in Florida and have a non operating big block Corvette conv in the garage.

            I know, that is why I stuck mine behind the shed under a blue tarp. That way I don't have to look at it each day in the garage.
