Oil Pan 7qts Datsun/ Nissan L24/L26/L28

The Oil Pan 7qts Datsun/Nissan L24/L26/L28 by MOROSO is a purpose-built replacement and upgrade component for classic Datsun and early Nissan inline-six engines that demand reliable oil containment and cooling capacity. Whether you're restoring a Z-car, maintaining a 510 Bluebird, or modifying a vintage Datsun truck, this 7-quart pan addresses the core need: increased oil volume for better thermal stability and extended drain intervals during spirited driving or engine modifications. Factory pans on these legendary powerplants often prove marginal for enthusiasts pushing compression ratios, ignition timing, or sustained RPM—making a quality upgrade essential for longevity.

MOROSO's engineering focuses on maximizing sump depth and internal baffling to minimize oil aeration and surge during acceleration, braking, and cornering—critical factors on track or in aggressive street use. The 7-quart capacity represents a genuine 2–3 quart increase over OEM specifications, allowing oil to spend more time in the pan cooling before returning to the pump, which directly reduces bulk oil temperature under load. Construction meets period-correct fitment while accommodating modern oil and filtration systems, and the pan's geometry ensures ground clearance on properly-tuned suspension setups without sacrificing structural rigidity or drain accessibility.

This pan suits L24, L26, and L28 engine variants—covering the widest range of Datsun Z models, 510s, 610s, and 620 pickups from the 1970s and early 1980s. Installation is straightforward for anyone with basic mechanical skill: drain existing oil, unbolt the factory pan, transfer the pickup tube if reusing it, and torque the MOROSO unit using the supplied gasket and hardware. Pair this upgrade with a quality synthetic oil and an external cooler for street or competition builds targeting consistent oil temps in the 180–210°F range, ensuring ring seal integrity and bearing film strength during sustained performance driving.
