Yes, I did have to switch to the LS1 pan, the truck pan was about 4" below the front crossmember and hit the ground first. The LS1 pan is about 1" above it, just perfect. It was kind of a fiasco though.. I bought a pan cheap, cleaned it up I discovered that it was badly broken in two places. I took it to a boat shop and the guy was supposed to call before doing any repairs to let me know how much $$$. Well he called after it was done and needed $250. I told him to keep it! But he said he'd let me have it for $150 cash...so I took it home and then realized the repairs were crappy. I'm hoping it doesn't crack or leak.

I'll get some engine mount pics for you.
