I have a '75 reverse rotation 351 W and am looking for an oil pan gasket. The oil pan that I have is the cast style with bosses for the lower water pump. I found a one piece rubber gasket at skidim, but it apparently is made for an '87 or newer engine. Will this one work for me? Or maybe an automotive style of the correct year? I had ordered a marine one from Felpro, but the one that they sent is for a Chrysler. Any recommendations? Thanks

I have a 1980 Nautique with the 351 Windsor. The oil pan uses a 2-piece cork gasket. You can find at any auto parts store. The vehicle description I give them to reference is a 1980 Ford E-100 van. It has the same engine. The kit contains 2 cork gaskets and 2 rubber end seals.

Hope this helps! Jim

Jim is correct that the gasket is automotive. the engine was converted by skilltec assoc. and branded as a Escort marine. the oil pan also needs 7 qts. of oil. it has a sherwood water pump mounted to the front of the oil pan. hope this helps.
