Default Can oil pan be removed if I have a BMR K-member?

I have the bmr k-member installed and am wondering if there is enough room to remove the oil pan without unbolting the motor mounts? Is there anything additional I have to do to lower it?

Oh, damn it! I forgot I need to unbolt and rotate the pump housing to get the freaking pickup tube out the bottom anyway.

Hey MrDude_1, You already have what I'd love to make my Next project. Man I'd love to see that RS vert in person. Too far you're 900+ miles away. Too sweet!
