With your name calling and grammar i'd imagine i'm a little older, more respectful, and wiser than you! If you couldn't catch the sarcasm in my post above, I blame you.

i couldnt catch any sarcasm in that whatsoever ... when you've been through a build that turns out nice, but you have a pos leaky used oil pan to deal with ~ you're not in a good mood ... ha ha ha, bubble gum i get it ... maybe it will be funny when the pan is fixed or pulled off ...

Pull it off and get it welded. I would hate to see some jb weld shit start leaking at the track.

its only takes like 45 min to get the pan off. Just pull it and get it welded...

The stock pans do not weld very well. They can be tigged with silicone bronze, but a year later they are usually leaking right next to the weld. I suggest a new pan. Did you check availability on rockauto?

I havent had any luck with JB weld on oil pans .My aluminum pan has been welded a few times. Is it aluminum or a steel pan?

It's an aftermarket pan. It'll weld just fine. I know it's a pain in the ass but pull it off and have someone tig the bad spots. You don't want a nice car and a leaky oil pan, sucks leaving puddles after everyone was just checking out your ride!
