Mine is also bagged so I had to go with the lower pan or else I would be hitting the pan layed out. Engine looks brand new! good job.
I was told there was 45,000 miles on the engine. I guess I can never be certain of that, but everything looked good on the inside. I was going to tear it down and put l92 heads, ls3 intake, and a cam in it, but I decided I wanted to get everything working and running before I decided to do that. It's funny, the oil pan off an awd is backwards of normal oil pans, I wonder where there crossmember is. The engine didn't start off that clean, because I think it sat outside for a little, but nothing a lot of cleaning can't fix lol
