Regarding the oil pan gasket, instead of buying a new pan, you can buy just the Viton gasket ($99) and reuse the pan. Does anyone have any experience with the Viton gasket?
Thanks,
I've done this process 3 times now. As soon as I've finished rev'ng it at 2K for a minute, it takes me less than a minute thereafter, with my hand pump to get it to start dripping and I've never bothered measuring the temp of the fluid if it even gets to 104F.
