Chrysler 318 Oil Pan Gasket

Post by SolomonsDrake »

I'm looking for an oil pan gasket for a Chrysler 318, which I believe would be FelPro 17991, Chrysler Marine 3780198, or Victor OS30520M, for an aluminum oil pan. However, it appears that there are none of these in stock anywhere online. Any recommendations for sourcing one of these?

Thanks!

Try to contact Lakeland Auto and Marine in Port Clinton Ohio. From the videos I have seen on YouTube, he has rebuilt a fair amount of Chrysler engines and should have a source. He does great work from what I have watched!

Or clean it well and use silicone gasket caulk. You are not sealing any pressure, it doesn't take much.

Fel Pro and Mahle have decided to obsolete the gasket set. There is an outfit in Ohio that offers made to order. Cometic 800-752-9850 P/N M115-094 $35.72. Currently a 4 day lead time.

My mechanic ended up re-using the old gasket.

Ironically, I recently needed the oil pan gasket. I found out directly that the Cometic gasket is actually not the marine version, it is the automotive. Their tech support didn't know the difference. Fortunately, although Felpro thinks the gasket kit 17350 is obsolete, my local Napa ordered it from them and got it without hassle.
