Those with Vortech's and aftermarket deep sump pans come inside...
Just bought a Canton T-style pan, and already have the S trim. The new pan should be here late this week. Is there a better (more leak proof) than the punching method?
Keep in mind the pan will have the hole put with the pan OFF the car. I didn't know if it's better to drill a hole and weld a bung on for the drain fitting or what. Please help, as I would like a nice 100% leak-proof solution. ------------------ See my car HERE 93 GT Red/Grey S trim, Edelbrock 6037 heads, E cam, BBK longtubes w/cats, 3 chamber Flowmasters, Cobra intake, Kirban fuel regulator, BBK 70mm t.b., 75mm Pro-M meter, 1.7 roller rockers, Mac upper and lower strut tower braces, FMS lowering springs, Factory Five upper and lower control arms, Speedware Cobra R 17X9 wheels, 3.73 gears & more.

I have a canton pan. I just drilled a hole in it and threded the fiting in there with epoxy on the threds. It has never leaked yet and it will not come out.

Do you already have the S Trim installed. I am getting a T trim soon and the only way I know is to use a punch with a rverse drill and magnet. I have a magnet from a pacemaker stuck to the bottom of my pan. It will grap any metal that comes near it and should keep u out of trouble if u instsll on the engine.

Thanks guys. Very good ideas. Really like the magnet idea. One step better than just the magnetic drain plugs.
I will likely use both ideas. Anyone else?
