5.3 LS oil pan clearance

[hewittca]

For reference, here is the clearance with the 302-1retro fit pan. Keep in mind, this is also with a 3/4" pancaked crossmember, so the pan would be even more protected with a stock crossmember. I went with the 302-1 because it gave me almost 2 more inches between the crossmember and vertical face of the sump area compared to the 302-2. The consequence is that the 302-1 is about 1/2" deeper, but that turned out to be a safe compromise.
