So I Bought this Moroso oil pan for the 13b for my 13b Renesis knowing ahead of time it might not fit (the company said they have never worked with renesis but with many parts being swappable between all 13b's I gave it a chance),
aaand it doesnt. Every hole lines up perfectly actually, except for all the ones on the front cover, and unfortunately its not as simple as redrilling as the flange overhangs a lot. At one point there is a pinhole where you can see inside it because it overhangs, see here:
So what should i do here? I show another picture here of the pan off the engine:
drain plug on different side in this picture ^
So how should i do this? Im thinking just send it to a machine shop and have them remake that whole side but how much would something like that be? Here is another picture to give you the best idea:
I have to use this because of my swap, and there is no other options specifically for the 13b renesis with a similar design (almost completely flat on the back side for crossmember clearance) The pan was 400$ (has trap doors and a baffle plate) would it be more economical to return this one and have a whole new one made, then to pay modify this 400$ one? I doubt it and i feel like either way im gonna be spending more money than I'm comfortable with but such is life I guess
