Yes, take off the oil pan. Put on the studs, then the gasket. Put the pan back on. Glad to be of service. Couldn't resist, you teed that one up.

I used Dwayne's write up. The only thing I would add to it is clean the underside as much as possible before starting. When you see the pics of his cars, you will see why this was not needed by Dwayne.

I use spray carb cleaner with the "straw" attached to carefully clean out the holes of the oil pan before installing the studs into the block with red threadblocker. Don't get any carb cleaner on anything inside the engine as it will greatly reduce the lubricating ability of the oil that is present.(in other words, keep it on the outside).I also install the "blind hole" studs first, then install all the other studs the same depth.(just looks better to me) Let the threadlocker dry for about 30 minutes or so, put the gasket on the studs to hold it and install the pan.

I had my oil pan 'hot tanked'... probably over kill but it was nice putting up a freshly clean oil pan...
