Pshhhhttttt!
I would suggest checking the oil pan for leaks with a light solvent before the pan gets installed and the engine dropped in place.
This isnt my first rodeo . Why do you think the picture of the pan is over my kitchen sink? Thats where it was cleaned and checked for leaks . My parts washer was full of crap.I had two pin holes . I thinks thats pretty good , for me . If you look closely you can see where I marked the spots, pin holes with purple sharpie . They have been welded and the pan has been installed by now.

So the I worked on the hot side a little more today and yesterday. The intercooler piping will be here monday . For the most part the engines going to have to stay in no for fitment of everything. I had to move the turbo up few inches to clear my tall valve covers and coil packs . I love my strong hand tools welding table it would have sucked doing this with out being able to fixture stuff. I was just thinking I would never have been able to build this motor at the price I did if it was a LSX and I almost went that route. Here some pics.
