how bad are the dents on your oil pan? as long as theres not a hole in it, it should be fine, but apparently it can cause your dipstick reading to be a little off. (this is still debatable as to how much it can affect it) anyways, if they're pretty big dents and it still holds oil, i'd still look into replacing it. the more its dented, the weaker it is and may not hold up to that next piece of pavement it comes in contact with. hope that helps

i haven't done research on oil pans or anything such as that, nor am i trying to boast this guys product. i just remember him posting this in another topic awhile back. some said his welds looked crappy. again, im not all too sure of this guys work, but maybe this will help.

Dents in your oilpan can cause VTEC to not engage properly.
