I want to drop the oil pan on this engine. Is there enough clearance to get it out with engine in place? It looks mighty tight.


Thanks

you'll have to take the bottom nut off the front motor mount under the cross member and jack the front of the engine up about 3"... but yes is the answer and yes it's very tight on the front corner bolts in particular.


Give me ambiguity
or give me something else
