I left the plain 2.2 pan on there as a result. I had no idea that there was a nice pan under there. I just thought there was immanent oil starvation around the corner. Much like everything else with the car, it was done right. Speaking of which, AJ's head porting job looked pretty good as I was inspecting things today.
