Not easy to do in the car. By the time you get it high enough to get the pan off the engine is only a few more pieces from being pulled out of the car. Did it on my 69 GTO only to pull the engine to put in a rear main seal. For gasket I would go with the B.O.P. engineering one piece oil pan gasket. A little expensive at $40 but worth it.
