Engine Pans

[JBill]

There are plenty of folks who don't use them, but they're not adding to this thread for fear of raising the ire of the pro-pan people. It's like the people who like white walls being intimidated by the "originalists."

Henrietta, You see the pan with the half circle cutout? Put that one on the passenger side!

You forgot to add that the curved side goes toward the ground.......ok...the OUTSIDE of the curved side goes toward the ground

I like that idea. But I think I'd do both - tap the holes to make installation easier, and then put nuts on the protruding end of the bolts. Belt & suspenders, yep, but would also keep the bolts from working out due to vibration.

Use lock washers on the bolts.

You can see the gloss black engine pan on my tudor here. This is POR 15 over clean tight rust. It flowed out and looked almost like porcelian. Gas just sheds right off incase of a gas leak.
