i finally got around to installing my vortech blower and when i went to punch the oil pan, i forgot my punch had a rubber tip on it and it fell off inside the oil pan. i tried draining it out with oil but no luck. will it cause serious harm to my motor or will it just melt and everything will be ok? by the way its about 1/4 size of a penny.

I'd personally pull the pan and get it out. Don't take any chances man.

X2 might as well do it while you can before you mess something up

I know it is a longshot but I would try draining the oil then putting it back in over and over. After draining, maybe spray compressed air if it is lodged somewhere, then put oil in and hopefully it'll flush out. You might get lucky and that will save a lot of work.

x3 on dropping the pan, a little time now or the potential for a lot more later.

Thats why I went with Procharger...its got its own oil system. Drop the pan. Don't risk anything.

yeah dropped the pan and got the little bastard out, but in doing so me and my buddies unbolted the motor mounts and now we cant get the motor back in place. the studs from the mounts need to move about 1/2-3/4inches forward for them to go in. anyone have any ideas?

Well it came off like that so it has to go back... will just take some wrestling to get it in..
