    Oh boy..

    Driving home from picking my sister up at the Sea Tac airport. There was a nice dip down to a manhole and bang. Drove for a bit with no oil coming out. Pull over on I5 then she starts pissing out oil.

    Sad day (Well a week ago) but I have a custom pan in the works. Which should be going on tomorrow. On to bigger and better things.


    Had no problems getting on the tow truck which was a nice relief. Haha the driver was like "I have never seen something like this" Mindfucked



    Here's one I thought looked cool while starting the tear down.


    Pan cracked in many places.


    If my grammer is bad, oh well I just wrote long paper.

          For some reason I am not to worried. Going to have a better pan and piece of mind. The downfall is driving my broke ass truck and 150 for a pan.

                        That's the worst thing about breaking the 24v pan, they are expensive! Going to reinforce the new one I assume?

                            Lol something like that. I'll elaborate more when I get permission to. A buddy of mine could start making them for a decent price. Yes, 24v pans are way to expensive for what they are. I think I'll do a write up on replacing a 24v oil pan though. Give something back to the community.
