The holes where the bolts go in were all bowed upwards, causing the pan to
not come in full contact with the bottom of the tranny...

I think that happened because the cork gasket allowed the pan to deform. If
you cannot hammer them back into position, you will need an extra heavy dose
of FIPG or a new pan. :-(

Actually, scraped it with a scraper and then scrubbed it with Brake
cleaner and a fingernail brush. Very interesting...

Melted the plastic on the brush enough to make the bristles fall out.
Deteriorated the gloves I had to a gummy mess on my hands.
Barely touched the gasket stuff I used yesterday!

I got an Ingersoll-Rand pneumatic angle die grinder from Harbor Freight and
use a Scotch pad - works like a charm and also comes in handy when scuffing
rotors.
