The overall height will be the same. The supplied motor mounts from PB are the same for LSX or SBC; the only difference is in where the mounting tabs are welded to the crossmember.

The truck windage tray can be modified to work with the Camaro pan. The CTS pan may prove to be unobtanium. Though the F-body pans don't exactly grow on trees these days...
