Default 4.2

Well i was attempting to do a complete motor swap in one day today and would have had it but one gasket ruined it. I was told by the guy that rebuilt my motor the first time that he put a rubber reusable oil pan gasket in it so i didnt get another one. Well i get the oil pan off and find that there is NO FREAKIN GASKET!!...So I call advance auto and the cant get one till tomorrow....So now im shooting for a complete motor swap in 2 days....wish me luck
