Been ther & Done that canadak, 3 weeks ago, Since then I've started a pretty good Inventory of Spare & Excess parts. I have 2 1/2 Engine right now & turning one Performance. I blew 3 rods in different directions out the Oil Pan. Only place I could get the right pan was a shop somewhere in Wisconsin. Good thing they will warranty it, Mine actually lasted to 217K. Guess it was time.

Good luck w/new engine!
