Oil Pan
Ok. I posted on this thread before, but its been a while since I saw this page or my car. Your car looks great. Here is the first of many questions:
the oil pan. You used an F-body pan so all you would need to do is notch the cross member. Did you use an original F-body pan? The junk yards around here kinda suck. No F-body V8s. When I go online to buy an F-body pan it references "new style" even as it specifies OEM. Not sure if that will fit. Thanks

The last pic with the smaller green square is what I notched to allow access and easy removal of the stock oil filter as Im not currently using a relocation setup like I had previously.

I'm using an oil filter adapter plate about an inch thick, for my oil cooler and the oil filter still clears, but not by much. I chopped a little more for clearance after this picture, but it will give you an idea. I also removed the side subframe reinforcement bar, for clearance of my long tubes.

Mike from AMS obtained the mount design from DGR. I had spoke with Mike shortly after extensively about his mounts, and I had seen a set first hand and the quality is exceptional and imo surpassed DGR due to the chromolly materials and powder coating. Mike is a member here on CL, but not sure if he is still active or not, but is a stand up guy to deal with.

Ive been looking for updates on your SC, even on LS1tech. Seen you selling a bunch of turbo parts, what happened?
Finally got my 243 head coming in, should be sending them out for porting shortly after. Then need to order all the LS7 lifters, trays, and some roller rockers. Ordered the LSD today (finally, only took 2 years), once all those are on, Ill get a tune and start building the next portion of the build.

Short driving video, nothing spectacular. Excuse the out of focus camera at the beginning, it couldn't decide what to focus on
Quick WOT 1st-2nd pull at 8:00.

Ordering BV solid front and rear diff bushings soon for the TT diff. Going to try and get the new heads put on along with the 100mm maf and a tune before TX2K15. May also be gutting the doors and replacing some glass with lexan soon.
Recent pic with my camera from work (300d with a 10-24mm lens, lowest quality settings on the camera), excuse the mess in the garage:
