The kit was bought from Snyder's and looks to be styled like a Kenz and is a simple bolt on system. The previous own didn't have much information on the car, but I did find some papers under the seat that said the motor was replaced at an odometer reading of 76,424 miles and it is now reading 81,240. The motor runs perfect, and I hope that it did have a rebuild and ther is only 5,000 miles on the rebuild. What should I check when I pull the pan off?
Some advice from a 60 plus year owner.

Don’t fix something that’s not broken!!!

If you car is running great. Leave it alone and enjoy it. I have seen a number of good cars really messed up by best intention owners.

If you doctor told you everything with you heart was fine, but let’s just have open heart surgery and check things out. “What would you say”.

Leave it alone.

Haze gray and underway.
