78025, 2.4L Engine Oil Pan Question
Posted by Divinity, Jul-23-04 09:25 PM
What exactly has to be changed on the oil pan to make it fit? I'd like to know before I get to far into this project. If anyone has any information on this please direct me, or PM me thanks.

I know there is something about grinding the pan, but what and how much is what I want to know.

no grinding

You take a 2.4 pan and cut it/weld it to look like a 2gnt pan

I was generous when I did the cutting
maybe too much was removed but my goal is to fit a very big downpipe under the engine
