Jeesh, Don. That had to feel a little frightening. Now you almost know how Hemi Fred felt for 200 feet. How's the car running ? Sounds great. Let me know if there is anything I can follow up on.. Rick G

Well,I missed the wall but got the oil pan,just enough to restrict the oil going into the pickup.Looks like it got the bearings.

That Stinks! Did it just get the mains or did it take the rod bearings also?

There has to be a better way... all you have to do is tap that pan and it's up against the pick up.

Are you going to be able to get it back together for Norwalk?

Going to pull it this week and see what damage there is.As far as Norwalk?????? Your exactly right,that pickup is so close to the bottom,it didn't take much of a hit to restrict it.
