Barry, 
Just a suggestion. On the oil pan there is a row of 6 bolts on each side. The 
aluminum for holding these bolts will allow you to use bolts that are 0ne 
inch long (the rest should be 3/4s to 7/8ths long) I suggest that you tap each of 
these 12 holes and use the one inch bolts. But don't overtighten them. The 
added alum is to prevent stripping the holes.
Regards,
Bob Helt
