Anyone put a LSA into a 70 Nova with Detroit Speed subframe? My main concern is if I need to install the Holley Oil pan for Clearance? Also this Motor is out of a 2011 CTSV, So is the stock oil pump strong enough to reroute oil cooler lines into Radiator?

What did DSE say regarding the oil pan? Looking at their build photos, looks like they're using Mast oil pan.

Regarding the oil coolers, I got a 6.0 that came out of a pickup. It has the factory oil cooler lines, so I'm pretty confident the stock oil pump can handle pumping the oil thru the cooler.
