Hey guy, quick question for those of you that have done LS swaps. I am going to be doing a 5.3 swap in my pickup and though I know the truck oil pan will fit I have a different question.
I am using a motor I had for another project that already has a CTS-v oil pan on it. I was just wondering if those of you that have the truck pan have any pictures of how much clearance you have around your cross member. The pans aren't that much different but the CTS-v sump is a little longer than that of the truck pan and I am worried it will hit the cross member.
I have both pans but would like to keep the CTS-v pan if possible just because I have already switched everything over and its on the motor.
I am going to attach dimensions of both pans so if anyone is willing to do some measuring I'd greatly appreciate it! Thanks!
