engine swap problem with oil pan
 
Ok you guys I got the 4.3 vortec out and LT1 ready to go in but the oil pan is to fat and hitting my front differential for my 4x4 so my question is what type of oil pan to use or where to get it from

I wasnt aware that you could do a V8 swap on a 3cnd genration blazer.
 
Do the make a motor mount kit to do this or do you have to switch cross members.Sounds like a tight fit and alot of work to me.About as tight of fit back when Chevy made the monza with the 305 V8 in it.

You can head over to S10v8.com and get an oil pan from the parts store. Or you can read in there and they tell you what oil pans work and which ones wont. I dont remember exactly, but i think they said something about an oil pan out of a 2WD Silverado would work, or maybe one out of a Camaro. Not sure but its in there under the 4x4 section i believe
