Which Pan for LS3 in 93-02 F-body? I'm planning a LS3 swap into 4th gen f-body, which Oil Pan / pick-up /tray will be the best set-up for this type of swap ?

Does anybody have the dimensions/template for the F body oil pan modifications for the 68-72 A body application? Since I already have the pan, and the LH8 pans don't seem to be a better solution (and they're on national backorder), and the aftermarket ones are quite spendy, I feel like I should just modify what I already have. Thanks.

Hello
I'm currently dropping a LS3 into a old supra. I have a Fbody Oilpan now on there which is quite fine but it would help me massivly if I could save some height in the front of the pan. Is there any OEM or aftermarket pan that is not as high as 1 3/8 inch in the front?

G8 Pontiac - VE Commodore F Body pan compared to G8 pan:
F Body pan looks comparitively larger than it is due to close camera angle.
Holds about 9-10qts.
Same as Holden VE Commodore 06/07/08/09.
PN's to come.
Cheers.

info too late kit came in Friday, it is the LH8 pan.
sure would have been nice if GM would have listed what the oil pan was in the kit with some dimensions.
not going to work for our 69 camaro swap.
part was a special order, dealer won't take back.
so now we are stuck trying to sell it.

Really, unless the engine is against the firewall and a regular F Body pan will clear the steering link, the options seem to be to section an F Body pan, take the bottom off an LH8, or get an aftermarket pan.
F Body here in a 68, engine not on firewall. Sectioned the pan.
