Not much to say other than the snap-ups from fel-pro were a life-saver. I covered the cork gaskets with permatex #2 and stuck them up to the block. Then I put in the snap-ups to hold them in place. The snap-ups really helped guide the pan home and held it just right so I could get a few bolts started. The pan uses two different sizes of bolts. My snap-ups matched the four bolts at the ends, so that's where I put them.
Notes:
I had to shave a hair off the new rubber end seals to get them to fit into the slots.
The pan also didn't want to go past one of the motor mounts. It was a bit of a squeeze.
To button it up, I reinstalled the motor mount washers & nuts, the idler arm, and the starter. The starter top bolt I could reach from the top.
I didn't get any pictures from underneath because I was very tired of laying underneath the damned thing.
The last thing I need to do underneath is the stabilizer bar, but I have to order the new urethane bushings.
The mount is 29.2mm wide.
It's 64mm between bolt holes
The bar itself is 17.5mm thick
