Mad Mike Oilpan Mod!! anyone like?

Ok guys here is the Mad Mike New and Improved Oilpan!!

and here is why I changed the oilpan!! let Big friend drive he wheelied and came down Hard!!

the bubbling in that picture was caused by the welding.
outside views!

2nd view.

and final view.

I feel this will save at least 3/4 of an inch in clearence and also will move the drain bolt off of the bottom and to the front. let me know what you guys think or if anyone is interested in having theirs done email me!

Hey Mike

There's also a crack big enough to have hair on it too, in the bottom by the bleed through from welding!

Did you shorten the pan to be the same as the header???
I know you are getting the sidewinder so you can shorten the pan even more if you wanted to but what about us "regular pipe" owners??? If not...you could shorten the pan (and oil pick-up) some more...

Just getting rid of the oil plug itself will deffinetly help though!!!

No, I did not shorten the pan, just removed the drain and the post's that stick down, I could have removed more of the pan but I was afraid of even less oil in the system!
