Ill gladly come over and give you a hand when you come to fit one, tricky little job though so someone who has fitted one before will help with the glitchy parts.

Hardest part for me was getting the new pan back in due to the dipstick bracket that is welded on the side of the pan catching on the headers (old original hacked off as I couldn't pull the dipstick tube free) and the lack of avaliable movement because of the oil pick up pipe in the centre which catches on the inside returns.


Another issue was getting the dipstick pipe back down through the tight darkness and inserted into the pan correctly. Those dipstick tubes do not give nor bend!
