Re: Oil Pan Removal -46 Clipper

I have taken the oil pan off my '47 Super Clipper at least 3 times. The front motor mount fatigue might be his problem which can be resolved by slightly lifting on the front of the engine block with a jack but also the crankshaft has to be turned a certain way also at least on the 356 engine. Once the pan bolts are all off and the pan has been cleared from the block a slight turn of the crankshaft might be necessary.
