What other pans will fit? The competition products one measures 10.5" long at the sump, will tat fit the factory K member? Hamburgers is the same. I called Stef;s and they said their B&B 91088 was to deep at the front and it would hit the K member.

That Moroso is nice, just a little pricey.

I had a Milodon, it hit the ground on landing, if the wheel stand was very high. Ended up too close to the oil pump screen. Moroso has not hit so far.

I have a Milodon laying around that was on the last Stocker 305 I had built. Remember it fit well. The 305 didn’t catch much air in the Camaro. I’ll measure the Comp Products pan next week I’m in El Paso headed to Chicago and Milwaukee next.

Are we talking NHRA Stocker legal or other?

My car is strictly a bracket car with a stock K member and solid Moroso mounts.

I made a sketch of the pan and K-member clearances. From front of pan to sump is 11". Distance between front of sump and K-member is 1". Distance between bottom of pan, non-sump area, is 1/4"-3/8". Not sure if the sketch will attach.

Thanks for the sketch! I see it's pretty tight between the pan and K member, are you using solid motor mounts?. I'm debating notching the K member when I have the motor out.

Again thanks for measuring and have a Happy New Year!

Solid Moroso motor mounts and stock K-member.
