Thread: Chevy 4.3 V6 oil pan question

I wasn't busting your chops for the big pictures, I was just afraid someone had already said exactly what I was posting but that I had missed it because of having to scan back and forth. If your pictures are stored in your computer at about a 640 x 480 size you should be able to just go to the box below that reads "manage attachments", click on it, then hit the "brouse" box and find the pictures you want to download. Then simply select the one you want, click on "download" and the picture should come out at a good size on here.

Itoldyouso, I've used Photoshop & Irfanview, and never had any trouble on the HAMB, Fordbarn, or any other site, except this one... I think Club Hot Rod doesn't want me posting photos or something...lol
I'll keep trying, and THANKS for the info, that should get me pointed in the right direction....

On all the other forums I am on, I have to first download my pictures into my Photobucket, then copy and paste them into my post. But this forum is just a straight shot from that "manage attachment" box right to the brouse feature, then to wherever you keep your pictures. I'm the most computer challenged person on this planet, and I've even figured this one out, so it MUST be simple.

Now if only you guys could figure out how to size your pictures soooooo it wasn't like a wide view of 60 days around the world.Ya know,not all of us have a 60" wide screen TV for a monitor.

Old guys like me just get threw looking at one part of the pix's and by the time I get to the end of it,I forgot what was on the first part.

Again, I apologize for being so "Digitally Challenged". I won't attempt to post any photos on this page of the thread, so maybe it will stay the proper size.
I truly am sorry, I post photos on the 'net all the time, and AFAIK, this is the ONLY website I have problems with...I've gone back and looked at some of my other posts on other forums, and the photos are fine.
Thanks for all the help, and the patience with my downloading dumb-ness.
BTW, I know know that the engine is a 1997, according to the block casting numbers, it was from a 1996-1998, it is a Vortec, and according to the previous owner that pulled it out of his Model A Coupe, it came in the coupe as a 1997 crate motor.
So now, I gotta find, a steel oil pan, preferably with a more shallow sump, and the pickup to go with it, that will interchange with the aluminum pan that is on it now.

I'm not sure how deep this pan is, but you could call and ask then compare it to your current one.
