I am using the stock LQ4 accessories and pan and Lextech's AC retention kit on my 98. I have heard that the truck pans are too deep for our trucks if you plan on lowering the truck. i dont plan to on this one but on another I will be.

All:
I am using the H2 Hummer pan on my 96, 2wd, 4L60E. It is just above the cross member. I used Lextech's Ac brackets on my 5.3 ( now a 5.7)

I'm running the eBay swap pan with dirty dingo mounts and my t56 mounts using the same auto crossmember just line the front holes up of the crossmember to the rear holes of the frame crossmember holes.

i'm running an 03 LM7 in my 1990 regular cab short bed, with a 4/6 drop. I'm using the stock 5.3 exhaust manifolds, Oil Pan, and all stock 5.3 belt driven accessories, EXCEPT the AC. I also used the Holley R12 ac bracket, to retain my old AC system. i havent had any clearance issues yet, and i live in south florida. the roads down here are awful. manholes sticking 4" up out of the pavement, potholes, bridge abutments, etc. never scraped anything. would probably be different if it was bagged. I also used the Transdapt LS swap motor mount adapters with the 1" setback. I probably could have gotten away with using the regular motor mount adapters, since i ended up drilling holes in the frame for the crossmember bolts, just about 1" behind the original holes. i used my original cross member, and driveshaft that came in my truck. But I'm using a 4L65E, and it mounts the same as my old 700R4. not sure how your manual tranny will work.
