Today I finished the pan .I can now mount the motor farther to the rear and lower in the frame .I plan to use a larger oilcooler than stock to make up for the loss of volume in the pan .I made the pictures on a spare motor in storage then mounted it to the motor with The Right Stuff and my Garfinkle oil pan brace . The oil pickup tube was shortened 1 inch and the scrap was used to reinforce the joint .That way nobody will say that will break apart .Next is making the subframe for the motormounts to sit on and the tranny mount. When that is done any one could finish this project to the power level they want .I will work on it again in a week or so ,I need to work on a 3rd gen this week end .
