GR3Z-6675-E is the new part number. My car has been sitting for a while waiting for a new Oil Pan. The dealer cant get it to stop leaking after doing the OPG and says the manual says to replace it. It looks like the pan may have went through some revisions. Does anyone have any info?

Ive never found a dealer that would install non OEM parts. Not to mention the powertrain warranty is likely void. would be interested to hear the OP's experience on this.
AFAIK, Ford dealers who are also authorized Ford Performance dealers will install the parts they sell, and to the extent that FP has a warranty for the parts, they manage it.

Just because it's a "Ford Performance" part and that a dealer will install it, doesn't necessarily mean Ford will still cover your power train warranty with it. Remember even the Ford Performance parts website states these are considered aftermarket and not "Ford parts". I'd love to be proven wrong though.

I disagree with that video 100%, as the GT350 uses the same oil pump, has greater vibrations and revs to 8K+ from the factory. That in an of it's self leads me to believe that the theory expressed in the video is 100% incorrect.

Well, you might take a look at the "Ford Performance" warranty. When I last checked it (and I have a copy in front of me) it is actually a Ford Motor Company Warranty on certain Ford Performance Racing parts. It expressly does not cancel your regular warranty. It's actually a pretty good warranty (from the customer's point of view) as written.
