I'm swapping an '85 oil pan into my '84 22R, since my original pan is pretty rusty, getting really thin, and all the POR15 paint I put on it 2 years ago is now peeling off. <IMG SRC="smilies/pissed.gif" border="0"> The front axle it out now anyway, so now's the time to do it.
The '84 pan uses a cork gasket, but the '85 uses FIPG. I already bought the gasket (FelPro), and I have a tube of FIPG. I was thinking of doing both, FIPG on the pan to hold the gasket. This should help the pan come off easily if I ever have to pull it again. Does this make sense?
