Here, it's easier. Just put the block and matt under the oil pan, and raise the engine a couple of inches.

Sorry You hit Your limit!

Take the starter off.Unbolt the motor mounts.Jack the motor up and put a piece of 2x4 between the mounts and block.Remove the flywheel cover.

I don't know off hand if they are availible for the 6Cyl but, I just replaced my oil pan gasket on my 350 and I used a 1 peice rubber gasket made by Fel-Pro. It was kinda pricey compaired to the standard 4 peice but well worth it. It was a snap to install once I finally got the pan off and no leaks.

Myself, i have no idea if an inline oil pan can be removed in the chassis...the quote of mine up there was for the small block equipped trucks.
