remounted catch pan
Here are some pics of my catch pan after remounting it. Now it is mounted to the engine instead of the chassis and it has 3.75" clearance at race level with 6 psi in the tires. The rear is now mounted to a flange on the downpipe to seal it.




i would try using the dzus fastener to make it easier to take off and putting the catchpan back on....looks good though!
i think nrg made a catch pan that used them! any one got a pic..?

I feel much better about it with bolts. It cames off very quick anyway. Besides, I had bolts lying around and they were free.

Looks good! How much did you have to notch the back for the downpipe? I know i have room to play with mine coming up, but its already notched about an inch for the downpipe. Have any pics off the car?

Yeah man. I had the lift when I closed my shop. The lift was paid for, so I built a garage to accomodate all of my stuff from the shop.

It is notched the whole 2". I welded a flange to the downpipe to mount it to so it is sealed. Here is a pic before I remounted it. The notch and mounts are the only thing different now.

That's just a added lip to catch anything from the oil pan. Thanks!
