Well... I was so happy when I got the headers and custom tube job done. But now I can't get the oil pan off!!! The bend in the exhaust is too close to the bottom of the pan, and I can't get it off!!

Oh yeah, and I can't put the pan back on because half the gasket is already off... *sob*

It sounds like it is going to be a little tricky getting the pan back on. Once you do, ir there any chance that the custom pipes can be modified to clear the pan in the future?
