trouble removing oil pan...
i got off all of the bolts except the ones covered by the flywheel cover.. my motor is a b18b, now i tried removing those bolts on the flywheel cover, the larger ones that are attached to the tranny and those are siezed big time, i put all my weight onto those and cannot remove them even with the breaker bar and im a 170lb guy. so now my other option i thought of was to use a dremel and cut away a small piece of the flywheel cover that covers those last 2 oil pan bolts.. i just wanted to run this past some members here and see what they thought before i do it. let me know.. tia
what size of a breaker bar you using? 3/8" or 1/2" or a 3/4". I would suggest using a 1/2" and slipping longer piece of a pipe on the breaker bar for more leverage.(spray some liquid wrench on the bolts). Or if you know a buddy that has a air impact gun that will always do the trick.

ill see if i have access to one.. but i doubt i will.. i really think i could just shave the metal that covers those bolts away with a dremel.
