Again? Geezus.

That’s why I didn’t bother with trying to return my hood or cowl, which are in worse shape than the ones on my car. Not worth paying that sort of shipping costs.

Let’s just redrill and tap those holes, or are they that bad?

the problem is that I've paid shipping 3 times and still don't have what I ordered. A functional oil pan. (plus paid for the part as well)

I believe that KillaV has an 16V oil pan just laying around. I DID have one, but now he has one. It should be what you are looking for.

I just drilled and tapped the late pan. I added the early guts. I believe the large drain hole/fill tube, bosses were still cast, just not cut out

Every later pan from 80 on is the same cast, some just have more threads tapped or holes drilled than others.

They all have provisions to add early internals. Just like how every center console post 80 can have the double hvac valve added that was exclusive to 80-83.

I've slept since then and I have CRS. I honestly have no idea and just barely a recollection of it. I can just barely remember what I had for breakfast yesterday.Call Mike.
