My email these days is [email protected] if you want to write directly. Only problem is I can't get to it reliably from my house, don't work in an office, so I have to find other places to log on; gives me an excuse to use my girlfriend's cable modem :-) FWIW, I can get to the forum from anywhere.
ANYWAYS....I talked to Design Products in Huntington Beach, CA; the guy's name is Don, but I only got to speak with a lady answering the phone. Apparently Don is busy working on World Challenge pans for people and wouldn't get to our 240 pans until December. We didn't get into specifics, but the price only came down to like $600 with maybe 5 pans; sounds like Don is really proud of his work...hehe
I used Tim for my suspension; is he thinking about doing oil pans?
I'm really not in a position to spend a ton of money on an oil pan, if I can spend half that on an Accusump that will at least protect the motor. But I'm open to suggestion and maybe I'll try some research on pan difference between 12- and 16-valve motors.
