Re: swap oil pan

I don't think it'll work, looks too deep. Here's a thread with a few pics. Look too similar to the truck intake IMO.

Re: swap oil pan

Keep shopping on eBay here and on ls1tech. Just follow what everyone one of us did as far as the simple stuff. The last thing you need is a ton of double parts your never going to use
