for future turbo. I figured since the pan was off why not?
also fixed cracks on inside and outside of pan possibly this was what was causing my valdez oil leak and not the pan seals or rear main which was the reason for pulling the whole drivetrain.
no one will even know which either makes me mad or glad haven’t decided.

Looks good! Good thinking with the turbo fitting, too.
I’m jealous; I’d love to do more than just the super-hacky job I did to patch my oil pan. But it’s just too much work to get to it...

i have to remove the transmission and engine to remove the oil pan! I figured I would do anything I could while its out. including upgrade the clutch.

Oh, then it’s not easy for you, either! LOL Mine just isn’t due for any other work right now, and I just can’t justify spending all that effort on a small oil leak. So I took my chances with epoxy. If it doesn’t hold up after a year or so, I’ll bite the bullet and do it the right way.
