oil pans that work for LS swap ?

Sirs,
I am looking to swap in a 4.8 Ls engine in my 86 Pontiac Firebird s/e 305. I would like to know what oil pans work for this? I will be using a rebuilt 700r4 throttle cable tranny, and Dirty Dingo sliding block mounts. I will be going to a throttle body, so the 700r4 will work for this.

The Holley 302-2 will also work. Most swappers don't consider it because it is a bit on the pricey side.

I'm doing a similar swap to my 90 Formula and was thinking about getting the Holley 302-1. Has anyone experienced any fittment issues?
