I didn't notch my oil pan nearly enough. It looks great if the wheels are pointing straight ahead, but when I turn the wheel, you can see the engine moving up and down(engine is bolted to mounts, but mounts aren't bolted to the frame).

I took a hammer and piece of round stock to it yesterday, beat the heck out of it and it is still rubbing. I'm also thinking there's not way I'll be able to change oil because the nut in the oil pan will hit the drag link. I'm thinking I'll have to move the part of the pan that is rubbing a inch or so back so that I can change oil and it won't rub when I turn the wheel.

Now, I'm just wondering if I should drill the block for the 194 pan/dipstick, rather than modifying the 250 one. Or maybe put the dipstick on the outside of the block and into the pan, which I think would be the easiest. I'm afraid of drilling the block.

Anyone have any input?
