Got some help ;)

She <3's getting dirty

I'm getting my oil feed from the stock oil pressure switch location
Switch out

Awhile back I read that some people had a lot of trouble getting this bolt off. They had to grind down a deep socket and use extensions, etc. Here's what I did:
15/16" wrench

Worked like a charm.
Here's the new fitting for the drain. It's a -4an fitting for the steel braided oil feed line.

Got all of the oil pan bolts in along with a new gasket. Also got the tranny shield back on. You can see the oil drain fitting in the pan.

Scraped off gasket on the block:

Oil pan is cleaned (sorta)

Drilled for the oil drain fitting

Got the drain fitting in, oil pan back in with a new gasket, oil sump in (that was a b*tch)

Took out the ac compressor/lines today





Also, got the oil pan out. That was a b*tch


I took out the motor mount bolts and jacked the engine up from the tranny. Unfortunately that wasn't enough to clear the oil sump, so out the oil sump came.
I also broke the oil filter housing. It cracked, so I got a new one from the junkyard and a new rubber ring thingy.
