@leea posted:M!ke, I'm curious, has your engine ever been out of the car?
I'm pretty sure it's never been out of the car, I've spoken with the previous owner ('77-'97) and he said it had not been out before or during his ownership... that only leaves a gap from '97-'05 (when Gary B. bought it). Gary did replace the oil pan though... but to my knowledge he didn't pull the engine.
