Since everyone is so convinced that I should modify the beautiful "Finned aluminum" oil pan, I am sending this to the list! I am not so convinced that fooling with that part is such a good idea. I am

Now Joe, if you're going to bait people and then chide them for not knowing this engine has a unique finned oil pan, you're not going to keep on getting much help from them. Personally, I'm surprized

I don't know about anyone else but I would love to have a web cam into Joe's workshop while this conversion was going on. Sure would beat the Bob Vila "This Old House" reruns. David A. Templeton Open
