John: I just replaced one on a 350 engine we built. I took all the pan bolts out,and it allowed the pan to drop about 1 inch to 1 1/2 in front. I then put the new gasket in and put the bolts back in starting at the front and working to the back. I had a chrome housing the had a small bend in it to the outside and caused mine to leak.Hope this helps Bob 64 SS -------Original Message------- From: The Chevelle Mailing List Date: 01/31/07 21:51:50 To: The Chevelle Mailing List Subject: [Chevelle-list] Timing cover pan gasket Hi guys...Does anyone have any tips on fixing a leak on the timing cover oil pan gasket on a small block???..Can the oil pan be lowered enough with the engine in the car to replace it??
