Is the replacement any different on a TTA than on a Buick due to oil pan clearance?

Thanks

You have to undo the motor mount bolts and jack the motor a good bit to get the pan out. Other than that,...pretty much the same.
 
You do not need to unbolt the motor mounts or raise the motor at all. Drop the tranny and remove the flexplate. The oil pan actually falls off the car after you unbolt it. I have done a few rear main seals in TTA's in the car.
