Default Oil Pan Clearance

I got a rebuilt 355 that I'm putting in my camaro I think it originally came out of a truck but either way what are the chances of me having clearance issues with the oil pan. I'm using stock motor mounts and its a stock oil pan but the oil pan isn't camaro specific it was on the motor when I got it I don't know if they are different just wanted to check before droppin it in.....Thanx

Default RE: Oil Pan Clearance

There's nothing in the way below the deep part of the oil pan. The clearance area is the shallow end (front) of the pan where the frame crossmember and exhaust cross pipe is. If the truck pan is deeper than the Camaro pan by about an inch in that area, you'll have a clearance problem. Do you have the Camaro pan to compare and measure against?
