Default Aftermarket Oil Pan

Has anyone installed an aftermarket oil pan?
Was the install difficult?

I would be interested in hearing your impressions as well.

Thank you.

If you take a look at the Vortech installation manual, you'll see the whole process of removing and re-installing an oilpan. Here's the online version:

From the first moment you pull out the jackstand to the last moment after you clean your tools and put them away, about 2 hours would have elapsed. However, it is advised that you let the gasket sealant set for several hours before putting oil back into the engine.
Unless you track the car or drive it like a madman every day, you won't need the extra capacity, the slosh control and other benefits of an aftermarket pan.
