Default 5.3 oil pan swap for ls1 f body

Is it possible to swap out the pan from a 5.3 with an oil pan from a f body? If so what all will I need to make this happen? Thanks for any help.

It might work, depends on the K-member. However the biggest issue you will run into is the fact that the 5.3 pan is 2 inches deeper, so clearence issues.

If your asking about putting a f-body oil pan on a truck motor, then yes you can.
You will need a f-body oil pan, dipstick, dipstick tube, pickup, windage tray, and a new o-ring for the pickup tube(o-ring for the f-body pickup tube/pan)
