well you have to pull the exhaust off seeing as how it goes directly underneath the oil pan. i sure hope you're not going to try and replace the rod/main bearings with the engine still in the car..

Word. You are better off buying another y8 block, or pulling the motor and building it....and buying a HV oil pump.
