I want to start by saying THANK YOU jagwrjack for your post in the 3rd gen archive about pulling the oil pan with the subframe in place worked perfect. My question is should I replace my oil pan? looks to be in good shape but maybe pineaplle racing? not sure. My other question is the motor mounts they have only 3000 miles on them snd seem to be in good shape but where leaking through the bolt holes. Should I replace then with gotham city mounts???? I have yet to put either part back on im trying to decide hopefully you guys can help me out.Thanks for the input I dont wat to waste monny just want things right.

 

If your motor mounts only have 3000 miles on them, then they are probably fine, no use in getting gotham motor mounts.

however, the gotham oil pan brace works wonders--i recommend that. My FD doesnt have one drip, 9000 miles after installation and lots of hard driving.

 

how does the oil pan brace work? Doe sit bolt over the oil pan? or does it bolt to the block and the the oil pan to it?

 

It bolts over the oil pan.

Block---->oil pan----->oil pan brace.

 

thanks for the info im going to order the brace right now. Is sound's like you did your pan yourself what kind of sealent did you use for the seal?

 

Try and find The Right Stuff for Imports. It works very well....also, do not use your stock oil pan gasket. Be sure to get the additional (longer) hardware from Gotham to mount the brace.
