Currently I have my engine supported and braced so that I can remove the front cross-member to take my oil pan off. It was leaking real bad, as well as a few other spots. I chose that option because I can't fit an engine host in my garage and close the garage with it tipping the engine a bit backwards to get the pan off. But that could be an option for you if that works. Just take the tranny cross-member off, driveshaft, cat or testpipe and any lines that can't be stretched.
Hope this helps you. Question though are you going to be throwing in an aftermarket oil pan? Or just OEM?
Cheers.
