Like the title says.
Will a 4.125 stroke (Lunati) crank clear an f-body oil pan and windage tray?
Rods would be 6.125 K1 H-beams.
With a 4-inch Lunati crank I had to space down the windage tray a touch and mod the front of the pan. But, this was with Lunati H-beam rods and I heard they take up more realestate.
What say you?

The last gen III I built using a 4.125 crank (Cola) and H-beam rods (Lunati IIRC) required shims for the windage tray. However the front of the oil pan needed to be grind down to clearance the 1/2 counterweight. The clearancing all but ground through the pan,leaving mabye .010 to give .090 clearance.
I welded a small patch of al. to the bottom of the pan to reinforce it.
