[6pack] Oil pan bolts & other pan business

[Yahoo]

Did you mark down which bolts match with each hole?  I had a lot of fun doing repair with my pan off.   Replace thrust washers as needed, blueprint oil pump (more oil pressure),  clean out years of gunk in pan (check for bits!), install front steel sealing block (an upgrade),  helicoil several bolt holes, clean up rest of threads,  flatten ans smooth pan lip,  use gasket sealent to glue gasket to pan before installation.  Paint outside of pan.  Use toque wrench in a criss cross pattern to tighten bolts.    Voila - no leaks!
Use an inch lb torque wrench for low toque settings such as oil pump installation.   Don't ask me about this!
Cheers,  Bruce Simms
