Rod Bolts on a C5?

I searched, didnt see a thread for this...

Can the rod bolts be changed with the motor in the car?

Can the oil pan be fully dropped with the motor in the car?

Ive only owned my c5 for 2 months so i havent dug into it at all, im only used to my camaro.

thanks in advance!

I "believe" you must lower the front subframe to access the oil pan....

yeah youre right, i got info from a sponsor on vette forum. he said you gotta pretty much entirely remove the sub frame, makes the job much easier than just lowering it a bit.

im just posting a follow up incase someone needs to search for this in the future, but we all know how thoes vette owners are

hahaha
