Gen V oil pan issue
An issue I was plagued with was a light bang on sharp turns with elevation changes, such as curbs, etc. I was finally able to get the car on the lift and examine suspension for damage again - earlier eyeballing showed nothing. This time I did note the Holley swap oil pan had some decent gouges resulting from contact with the inner tie rod.
Only way currently I can see to stop this damage is by limiting the steering travel. A cpouple of 5/16 screwes into the lower control arm where the steering arm contacts it solved the banging but reduced inside corner tire angle from 31° to 25°, not good for Lisbon parking garages! Another solution will need to be found...
