I have a 1987 Z28 with the 305 TPI motor & a cracked oil pan. How much trouble is it to change the pan & any additional advice, such as gasket type sealer etc! Thanks!!

If I'm not mistaken that year used a one piece oil pan gasket. If yours is in bad shape a new one will cost about $40 from the dealer. I recommend the dealer because the gasket fits better and does not leak like some of the after market ones I have used.

I have used the Fel Pro gaskets on my one piece rear main mills and have had great success.
