Default oil pans

well, my oilpan is leaking pretty good, so instead of just changing the gasket, im gonna go to a bigger pan, anysuggestions, anyone use an aftermarket, i was looking into the canton, they seem pretty quality at a reasonable price.

yes, i know, this is a job im not taking on myself, ill be paying to have it done, no time between work and kids, so i got a shop willing to do it for 350, i hate paying someone but itll cost me more to take 2 days off work so im not robbing time from the wife and kiddies. what really sucks is i just did the rear main and installed a whole k member kit last month, another reason im not so eager to get under there myself again,LOL
