If you have a few exta bucks a much better fit is the Caddilac CTSV pan, it is about flush with the cross member.. a must for any significantly lowered vehicle (I ran one on mine as it's on coilovers) Only problem is they are about $200-250

Another option is the Hummer pan (GM Muscle Car pan).. it is about an inch shorter than the truck pan, so it will adequately clear stock/slightly lowered vehicles. Summit sells the kit for $150 that includes pan, pickup, windage track, dipstick and tube.. not too bad

Or run the truck pan and tip toe over speed bumps lol

The hummer pan is still going to be the lowest point of your car though. If you are fine with that route to save $100 then yeah it will probably work, and people seem to do it all the time.
