Default Pan and k Member question

I have a 1991 Camaro RS, I have a Spohn Kmember. I have a ls2 Gto Crate motor for it. I know the Front sump pan will not work. Any Idea what Oil pans will work with the conversion? Will any of the 2" at the front pans (Holden, CTS, or H3) work or do I need to use the 1 3/8" thick pans at the front off the Fbody?

I know the truck pans are too deep at the rear and will hit the ground.


Thanks,
Fred

I would go with the F-Body pan.. that has always worked best and with out problem for that type of swap and K-Member. If not. aftermarket pans.. CTS-V might work, but any of the Truck pan are too deep in the sump.

With the tubular K, alot of pan options open up. Fbody, C6 LS2, C5 batwing (debatable)

The main kicker is depth

The spohn unit actually hangs lower than the stock Fbody pan. You may actually fit the GTO pan in there assuming the centerlink clears
