Default oil pan and mounts for my chevelle

I know this has been beaten to death but for the life of me I cant find a straight answer, im going with a single turbo setup in my 70 chevelle what pan and mounts work together good ? it will have a th400 right now then going to a built 700 or 200 r4

I would recommend to use the Holley Plates and Oil Pan (or MAST).. .w/Hooker headers... Those seem to work together well.

Don't go with any of the Truck pan (also the aka Muscle Oil pan)

Isn't the Holley pan similar to the lh8? Header fitment is not to big a deal because it will be a single turbo car

No, the jl8 hangs down quite a bit below the crossmember, holley tucks up nicely. I'm using dingo sliders, narrow and tall poly mounts and an ls1 pan. Everything fits just fine

Holley pan with the new baffle they just released. Plenty of ground clearance

I like the holley stuff also , i have an ly6/2004r in my 64 , with an musclecar pan , same as an lh8 i believe . It took major surgey , and the tyerod on the pasenger side hits , moroso i believe makes a decent pan .

I used an F-body pan and 1 inch set back mounts...fitment was tight but good...I have no tie rod clearance issues.
