What you will find here: Intended to display minor modifications to my Westfield SEi, this blog now witnesses the two year rebuild (and more) after a major crash in October 2011. Have fun and feel free to add a comment at the end of any post.

From the bottom

Oil pan cleaned meticulously to permit a good contact surface with the gasket. Silicon will be applied to the block surface, Loctite 5926 recommended.
Don't forget to tighten the con rod bolts with the torque wrench (48Nm) before you put the pan back on. Quite a lot of bolts. Tighten evenly to prevent it from bending.
The kit FP716K from Burton contains the gaskets you need. I replaced the pan gasket and the two half circles front and back.
Cheers.
