Well, mine is only leaking due to a bad weld around the back side of the tube where the beginning and end of the weld meet. I think i can fix it without any major issues, but it is still disappointing to have an oil pan that cost almost 700 big ones leak. You would think they would test them for leaks before they leave the shop, but perhaps they do not. Im hopeful that my pan will not fail elsewhere, but i will be sure to keep a close eye on it. If i ever build another 427, i will purchase one of the new Kirkham pans that will be offered in the near future.
