i just ordered a ctsv oil pan for my 94 impala... I already have a S&P modifed f body oil pan dont like it does have baffles and 4qt oil pan... I heard i might have to raise my motor up some to clear the center link idk yet... Oh yea, Im running s&p mounts... im taking my LS1 out i think i spun a bearing or broke a rod bolt not knock one time... droping in a fresh lq9 0 miles

 

The CTS-v pan works quite well on my Chevelle and the frames should be quite similar. I did have to raise my my engine some but only for the power steering pulley not pan clearance.

 

H3 pan fit so good with 1" setback

 

I hope ,I dont have to do alot of cutting and spacer

 

I only had to use spacers for the p/s pulley. There are pictures of it in my car in my thread. Plenty of room.

 

The A-Body crossmember isn't as wide from front to rear as the B-Body one, that with the slope of the pan may cause issues. Did you ever check for tie rod end distance/interference like I said Harry?

 

Im still waiting for the pan to come in the mail...

 

I meant with the pan that you currently have. Did you ever measure lock to lock from the tie rods to the current pan?

 

Oh.. havnt had time to check.. I will check tomorrow moring and post pics...note battery dead fml

 

You be bs-in man. I told you that 3 months ago.....



Well 2 weeks ago lol. There is a 3/4" difference between the depth at the front of the pans, that may cause an issue. That also may be why the BRP mounts are so high.

 

Here is a picture of both the F-body (draft notch) and the CTS-V, You can compare the slope from front to rear of the CTS-V and how much deeper it is compared to the F-Body.. using a H3/Muscle pan would be anothe 1" or so deeper.

 

i cant upload pic

 

Here some pic of full lock left to right with S&P f body mod oil pan

 

I think we have room for ctsv pan
