Any options here?
I am trying to find an answer to my exhaust issue that doesn't require me pulling the motor and replacing the oil pan. I have an 82Z28 with a 383 and hooker 2460 ceramic headers. I use the moroso 6qt oil pan so it kicks out a little. The oil pan makes it so the 2460 Y pipe won't fit (it doesn't fit into the slot by the kmember.
I had the car towed to a local muffler shop for them to put my hooker cat back system on it, along with modifying my y-pipe to make it fit (it was a few inches off). He stated he couldn't do the work and I would have to put a regular oil pan on the car to make everything fit. He also said there is no clearance for duals and told me to pound dirt.
My question is does anyone else run a 6qt pan in a 3rd gen that can post a few pics of how your exhaust is? I just finished the motor last month and it's killing me that I can't get an exhaust put on it.

Yeah the first exhaust shop I went to the guy was a total ***. I took it to another shop and the exhaust guy set me up with a custom Y-pipe that worked perfect and I only lost a little bit of ground clearance.
He installed the custom y-pipe and hooker cat back with no problem.
