Fr Jack is embarrassed with his smoking Sprite and the complete 
valve/head job did nothing to fix it.
I am going to rebuild that dead 1098 on my garage floor. The oil pan is 
extremely rusty, like I give it a few months and it will
spring a leak or 2.
I have an oil pan from a 948, is this the same?
I know 1275s used a different pan, and this 1098 is a 2" main block. So 
do  use a 1275, 948 or some weird unique oil pan?
I don't have any 1275 oil pans. Or worst case, are the pans from a 10CG 
and a 10CC engine the same? I can always pull the pan off the engine 
that is in the Holy Sprite when swap day comes around. I just don't want 
to use the one from the garage floor with it's flaking rust chunks on 
the bottom.
