Subject: Oil Pan Bolt Hole Pattern

Does anyone have a drawing of the oil pain bolt hole pattern for a
renesis
engine?  I would guess that at least some of the holes, such as in the
rotor housing area, might be the same as the 13B?

Another option might be to obtain an RX-8 oil pan.  I've read that many
have been replaced under warranty.

I tried to get mine back from the dealer and he said he had to turn it in.
Try sending email to this guy but don't tell him it is for aircraft.

Paul,
I didn't hear - what was wrong with them?

They gave a premature low oil warning light.

How about getting a oil pan gasket and using that as a template? You'll need a pan gasket eventually anyway, and it's relatively cheap, I think.
