jdmdime Posted December 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2011 Sump time! Sump is going to be interesting It looks like its going to have to be a bat wing pan Quote Link to comment
jdmdime Posted December 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2011 things begining to take shape (front) things shaping up (rear) The only thing more impressive then this pans beauty is its complete and utter failure. Im calling this the mark 1 pan/prototype Quote Link to comment
jdmdime Posted December 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2011 Took less then two minutes to plasma cut off the pan from the flange....... Afer it was apart i took the time to fill it with water, it holds eactly what the math said it would......4 quarts.... Aww look at this cute little oil pan flange the Deviant whipped up.........AGAIN........Mk2 oil pan coming soon.... Instant Mk2 oil pan just add weld..... Quote Link to comment
jdmdime Posted December 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2011 Bead I give you the mk2 pan! see the diffrence? See those holes were supposed to be in the last pan.......I kinda welded it together before putting them in...........haha oops.... And this is what makes it all possible!! The cool part is the tubes are stainless so even though the insides cant be painted they will never rust! Quote Link to comment
Laecaon Posted December 2, 2011 Report Share Posted December 2, 2011 I think I would have added a bit of tilt to the pan, to help collect oil for oil changes. Other than that, I like this option over cutting the crossmember. Quote Link to comment
