hey guys I'm trying to replace my oil pan that cracked but I'm running into a few problems. i bought a 96 gsr oil pan however the shop thats installing it says it doesn't fit. is there a different oil pan i should be buying? its a 96 gsr with a stock b18c1, any help would be appreciated.

Is your replacement pan used? damaged?
Should be straightforward.

Naw bought it brand new from Bap Geon And they told me that's the right oil pan for the gsr like double and triple checked but the guys over at pep boys are telling me somethings not right like its not bolting on the right way or some shit? I'm just like who the fuck can give me a straight answer on what to do man. hah.

try to replace it yourself. It could be they sent out the wrong one to you. But I would try to put it on myself and see why it doesnt fit

Not sure about aftermarket parts, but oem GSR oil pans are stamped 'P72.'
If you were given an ls/b16 oil pan in error, it wouldn't fit.
Is it possible for you to compare the two side by side?

If it was an ls/b16 it would bolt up and still work but the pickup would sit higher. (IIRC)

Shop is jewin' you.

The B16/LS oil pan doesn't clear the GSR's girdle/windage screen. The pick-up lengths are different for the same reason.
