hey i have a gsr block mounted to a b16 tranny and now im bolting up the oil pan, but i was looking at it and there's no where to bolt up the oil pan on the side of the block that connects to the tranny. does the oil pan bolt up to the flywheel cover?

 

bump

 

I was under my car (gsr motor) and it looks like if you remove the flywheel cover there should be two bolt holes or maybe studs (i'm not sure). While you have the flywheel cover off look for the two notches in it (on the top), this is where the 2 holes or studs will be.

I cant get a real good look at it, but there is somewhere to bolt that side for sure.

Yup, just remove the flywheel splash cover and you'll see the "missing" mounting locations.

 

i dont have a flywheel cover on there now, i was running it without one before. ill check again when i have a chance to get to my parents house

 

ill take a picture tonight, but i was looking at it and it looks like the oil pan doesn't seal on the flywheel side, does the flywheel cover seal it?

 

No, there should be threaded studs / holes that you put the oil pan and the flywheel cover over. The oil pan should be sandwiched between the block and the flywheel cover.

And yes, post a pic for clarity.

 

this isn't mine but you can see what im looking at. im talking about the left side.
also is the windage tray needed?

 

The very left side of that should have the rear main seal housing bolted to the block. I hope you have that there. The windage tray should be there it was put there for a reason. If you have it make sure you put it back.

 

ya that's where the oil pump is right

 

You must be missing the right side cover
here look at this (its #7 and #23 is one of the two studs)http://www.acuraoemparts.com/d...ch=no

your tranny is already installed isnt it? It think you may have missed that part when putting it back together otherwise you would be seeing some studs or holes.
