 Does anyone have an accurate AutoCad or TurboCad drawing of the oil pan bolt
 holes for the 13b turbo engine that they could send me?  I measured and
 drafted one up but I'm not sure how accurate it is until I plot it out and
 compare it to the hole spacing on the engine block.  If someone has already
 done this and would share the cad drawing I would greatly appreciate it.

 Thanks

Here is the trick I used Del. Buy some 1/8 inch thick transparent
Lexan and lay it down on the flange of the old pan or on the bottom
of the engine. Use a center punch to mark the holes. Then drill it
out and use it as a drill template there after. Plexi will also
work but it is not as tough as Lexan.

Del,  I may be able to get that drawing for you if Danny (machinist
friend) saved the machine instructions which he should have done.
ten minutes later:  just talked to Danny and he will try to come up
with the drawing and e-mail it to me.   Don't hold your breath, he
may not get to it for a couple of days.   Jerry
