shots from the garage...

Hit the back of the oil pan which moved it enough for the flex plate to leave witness marks on it... also leaking most likely from the welds from what I can see. Took a mallet to it for “readjustment”.

Pulled threads at #8 exhaust port. Bolts had pretty shallow engagement and looking at the tube I have room for a stud, so that’s good.

Engine fore/aft limiter.... goes from K member (which took the brunt of the hit) to a threaded hole near the pan rail of the block. Bolts were bent... this has me reconsidering this. I can’t hurt this block!! 9.2 Siamese block sightings are right up there with Bigfoot!

Going to a friends place in Vegas to see how bent the car is Friday. Getting more bars added and wheelie bars.

Maybe I should have left well enough alone..... but what if there’s a 5.6 in there??? :)
