Anyone know how to space out the sway bar from the oil pan without beating something up? or using so many spacers to the point only one bolt will go in. Syko performance from what i can tell only has a kit for the skyline crossmember and I used the stock S13 one. Any knowledge on the subject would be great. Thanks

You either have to space the bar down or you can cut into the bar to help it clear.

Do it right and have a stock oil pan modified...or a custom one made.

Or you can always add a spacer to the engine mounts too if there is enough hood clearance. Depends how much is needed for the sway bar but the point of engine swaps is getting the center of gravity as low as possible!

Lol, that looks sortof like a 26 front-sump pan without the baffles of a 26. Maybe a 25 pan from a GTS-4 or something?

Looks like a iX pan. Done properly you can space the bar down with no issues.
