In car oil pan rem. Has anyone tried to rem. an oil pan with the engine in the car-I am changing the GM Hot rod pan for a Holley 302-2 in my 65 Buick (A body)
Curious if it can be raised high enough to clear the sump
Thanks

With most older swap vehicles, I seriously doubt it.
If you are referring to the car in the picture, why take the chance on damaging something? Pull the engine so you have plenty of working room.

it's a pita....it can be done but if you have the space it's easier for me to pull the motor
my favorite way is to drop the bumper, take off the core support & rad and pull it that way. that might be tough on a 60's A body. so many hard to reach bolt between the fender and the core support!
on my '77 it's stuffed in there so tight I have to drop the driveshaft, shove the tranny back and then angle the engine out really steep
