few questions for the experts, I have comptech headers on my car, and I need to replace the oil pan due to slight dent underneath.
1) is replacement of oil pan necessary with about 1 inch dent?
2) there is no leaks or anything around the pan, does the dent affect anything, oil pressure, extra oil usage...etc?
3) Can the pan be repaired by pounding it out from the reverse side? or it has to be replaced?
4) I was told that in order to get to the oil pan, one needs to remove the header, which ofcourse raises the labor involved. Is this true?
appreciate any opinions or suggestions,
TIA
