I'm not aware of Pineapple's pan. I can't remember the shape of the aluminum pan, or if it would fit in a '78 or older engine bay.



Is that a real REPU front cover mount? They typically get ground down for easier access to the front oil line. Yours likes kinda like the REPU style, but it's been a while since I've seen one out of an engine bay. That could be from a Cosmo or RX-4.



I have a rusty pan. All I did was clean it really good and used it. The rust won't get any worse.

yeah its from a repu. guy in oregon has a junkyard full of about 12 of them. he has a running (smokes) 75 for 750 which im considering buying.

You're not going to give up on your current REPU project, are you? Do you just want somethng to drive? I have two REPUs. One runs and drives, the other needs a port job and a set of tires.



Here are two pictures that you might like. Both are R5 13B pans. The S5 engine is going into a '77 REPU.

i dont want to throw in the towel on the project, but its safe to say that i bit off more than i can chew. hoping to get as many more knowladgable people as i can to help out.

I think if you can get that other truck, you'll have it to use as an example of how your project truck needs to proceed.

the biggest problem i have right now is money. once i send off money to mazdaspeed7 im going to have about 800 or so left to get this REPU running. (its the only car i have at the moment) also unemployed, and since i cant drive its hard to get a job.

75 Repu

Its just gonna be all about the positioning.. Hey Happy Meal.. Victor bought a Wire Feed welder.. if you can get the hoist.. we can mock up some brackets.. and weld those suckas in..!!

75 Repu
