Question: Oil pan removal '93 LT1

[tcxd40]

Anyone removed the oil pan from a LT1 while the engine still in the car?

I've been working long hours to get my wife's new toy ready for the spring. I was about to change the oil when I noticed that the pan is crushed pretty bad like someone took it out to the Baja 1000. Somehow I missed that when it was on the rack at the dealership. :bash I maybe able to make repairs once it's off. That is if I can get it off while still in the car.

It is very easy compared to most cars. You will need to remove a few clips w/wires that mount on the pan bolts. It has been a while since I did it but I believe you will have to remove the oil filter adapter. Loosen motor mount bolts and raise the engine and bit and the pan should drop off.
