We have used the GM Hot Rod Pan in the past and had good results. Never used the Holley Pan, would be interested to hear how it fits.

1. GM muscle car pan will hang down too far on a lowered car... I found out the hard way.
2. Hooker mounts will position the engine back too far and you will limited space for your harness and it will create clearance problems for the 4L60e.
Hope this helps...

Nothing too drastic... certainly not in the grass like some of the bagged cars. I have QA1 coil overs and I would guess they were set at about the mid point. The pan is the same one used on V8 H3's and is really deep. I ended up going with a notched F body and its flush with my crossmember. The GM muscle car pan hung down about 2 inches past the crossmember if I were guessing. The cars are pretty low from the factory so there is much margin for error.

I have dirtydingo motor mounts. They are adjustable and you can set the motor where you want it. I like em..
Also modified the F-body oil pan. It fits great too. I notched the crossmember and don't think I even needed to.
