March 3, 20169 yr comment_487707 The normal saying is "pics or it didn't happen", but in this case, I trust you completely. And thank you. Nice pump. Does the check valve work?

March 5, 20169 yr Author comment_487860 I have a question. The driver side floor pan seems to have a lot of extra metal at the point where it meets the transmission tunnel. The passenger side seems fine. I am wondering if I have the correct floor pan?My concern is that if I extend the metal up the tunnel, the seat supports won't fit anymore. There is about 4 inches gap at the tunnel to the curve of the floor pan. If I bend the floor pan in to meet the tunnel, the two drain plugs against the tunnel will be vertical and the entire curve will be gone. Basically the tunnel starts where the floor pan forms the U channel. If this is normal, I understand some metal work is needed! Edited March 5, 20169 yr by wheee!

March 5, 20169 yr comment_487863 I don't know. I would have thought your pans would have looked like the 240z pans with the large oval stampings and the drains plugs in the stampings...
