Post some pics of that pan installed if you don't mind, I've always wondered how it looks and how well it clears compared to a standard SBC pan

Sure. There will be plenty in this thread.

Yeah even with the F-body pan, a notch is going to be required. Holley pan's are GTG if I recall correctly though.

Ordered the Holley pan.

It says he notched the k-member. Damn. I guess I will buy the Holley LS swap oil pan.

I think the issue isn't so much to do with the depth as it is with the length of the lower 'valley' which is like 13.5, in comparison to the f-body's 11.5. I would imagine the cut into the K-member would be rather significant and probably take away a bit of integrity from it as well to fit that pan.

I knew the Corvette was longer, but I thought the F-body was deeper so I would gain some there. I see they are both 5" at the back but it looks like the F-body angles down a bit as it goes forward.

I did find one individual who used the vette pan on TGO.

Link?

I did find one individual who used the vette pan on TGO. No clean pics of the cut he made into the K though.

Far as I know your vet pan will not work with stock k member unless you notch it and I also remember people saying it hits the right side control arm?

Have you ever seen anybody try it with the C6 pan? I haven't been able to find it. Only with F-body and truck pans. The C6 is pretty low profile.

Not sure that pan will work with the stock K then..

You running a tubular K?

No.

Just a crate LS3 or anything special done to it?

All stock. With headers and a tune it will be plenty of power for the application. This is just a street/show car.
