I’m in a pickle now. A mechanic friend recommended I reinstall the oil pan with a gasket maker (Right Stuff in this case). Knowing (or so I thought) that I wouldn’t pull the pan again until rebuild time, I agreed and reinstalled the pan with Right Stuff instead of the pretty gasket I paid for. Doh! Now I need to pull the pan but can’t. It’s glued on tight! I broke the seal with a putty knife in a few spots so I have to pull the pan because it’s going to leak if I run it as is. If you’re gonna be dumb, you gotta be tough - or at least not whine about the consequences of your own dumbness. So I think it’s rebuild time. I’m going to build a custom gasket-maker breaker tool and hit it with heat tomorrow as a last resort. I started a thread in the gen 2 forum re 6G72 rebuild kits. I’m stoked on the rebuild, just not ready for it.
