decent priced oil pan just for everyones heads up and possibly kill the idea that a stock oil pan is worth 200 dollars i seen in a jegs magazine that they have a complete kit for 165 dollars or so..... just to give anyone that hadent noticed this a heads up.
I little more info or Links would be nice.. remember, you do get what you pay for.. ! If it is the GM Muscle Car pan. I'd pass.. you get a +7" rear sump.. as someone calls it.. aka.. A Skid Plate..
Might work for truck and cars that are at least stock height, Pan will hand down anyware from 1 1/2" to +2" below your crossmember, depending on how you mount the engine.
But it is a good price if it fits your application..

I would go with the Holley/Retro LSX pan. or the F-body pan if i were to do it again.
Just found it.. http://www.jegs.com/i/GM+Performance...12593/10002/-1
as I though it would be.. Muscle Car kit. I would not recommend for cars, but great for truck and great price for it. seem to have dropped about $20+ .. or so..

I'll do some more measurements tomorrow to try to see if it's possible to push the engine back farther so the rear sump would go behind the steering rack using the muscle car pan, but I doubt it.
If that doesn't work, are there any front sump oil pans that have a shorter sump (that are reasonably priced)? Is the H3 pan front or rear?
I have a stock 2001 F-body pan I will sell cheap (forgot I still had it!), I coundnt use it for my swap and had to go with a GTO pan.
Anybody needs it I will let if go pretty cheap since I cant use it anyway...I also have the pickup as well.

I bought my CTS-V oil pan setup for $100 brand new. A lot of the guys who bought LS^ crate motors came with the CTS-V oil pan so they dont use them and take them off. Also gives awesome ground clearance.
What are you building, an old Chevy II? Just curious
hi, possibly interested, what are you looking to get for it? you can PM also.
