    Replacing Oil Pan in Situ

    So I'm trying to organize a few projects as I get ready for paint and one of my "need to do" projects is to swap out my 7.5" Milodon pan for a 6.5" Aviaid Pan to accommodate the solid engine mounts.

    So my question to the group for those who have done this before me is - is this something I can do with the engine in the car? My gut tells me yes but I wanted to confirm before I get too far down the rabbit hole. I wasn't sure if the pickup was a press-fit or something like that.

    For a bit of context, the engine is a 427W (BOSS block), I have the Gordon Levy solid mounts, and I do have a lift so getting the car in the air won't be a problem.

    Thanks!
