Default I think I better re-do my oil pan...

When I took the old oil pan off, I couldn't get a few of the bolts off without breaking off the heads. Being that I wanted to get it done, I put the new one on with the missing bolts thinking that it should be OK with the new gasket. I filled it up with oil and its not leaking but I am not sure if the oil level actually goes above the top of the pan, and once it heats up and has pressure, it may develop leaks. I would hate to have to go through this all over again in a few months...

So since I still have the frame set up and not much to disconnect I think I better pull the engine and try and get the bolts out with a drill and "easy outs". If I can't get them\some\one out, I am thinking I should use a good gasket sealer as well.

Comments?

thanks,

rkc
