Hi,
        When using the Schertz beam, in my case at the
front of the motor,  is it
necessary to fab a custom oil pan or do you use washers or
shims to take up
the space between the rib on the outer edge of the stock
pan and the bolt
area?  Thanks for any help.

I think you can grind it off as the Schertz beam will provide
plenty of
uniform clamping pressure on the oil pan flange.

When I was considering the S. beam I was going to put the pan on an anvil and just beat the rib flat.
