I had to replace my oil pan after the drain plug fiasco. So, I decided it was a good time to also drop in the FLP longtubes.

We used the helms shop manuals as reference while doing the pan swap. The manual said to unbolt the motor mount pad instead of the entire mount, so you can avoid moving the AC compressor.

It took about an hour to have the K member down and the pan out.. To support the engine, I used a hoist on the front head bolts and a jackstand w/ a flat piece of wood under the bellhousing. The trans x member and everything else from the bellhousing back was still attached.











I hope these pics can help someone out. I tried searching for days on this site for oil pan swap info, and I couldn't find a damn thing.
