You will have to remove the engine mount bolts and jack the engine to remove oil pan. Floor jack or bottle jack engine up and use wood blocks between mount towers and engine then remove jack. A 2" block will give you enough room to remove the pan. Now don't forget to loosen the tranny mount. Change all mounts while your at it. Keep a close eye on the distrib. to firewall clearance if you have a HEI.
