Yet another person putting an LSA in a 1969 Camaro but I'd like the oil pan to be able to support a 4" stroke down the road. It looks like the Holley 302-3 oil pan can support a 4" stroke. Anyone used that?
The other options I was thinking was the Mast Motorsports LS Swap oil pan.
The last consideration was a Moroso High Clearance oil pan from brphotrods.
It sounds like with any of those options, since I'm already pulling the pan, I should also add an oil pump pickup tube brace/girdle and put that on?

Girdle not needed and won’t fit on that block/pump.

Interesting good to know. Out of curiosity, what's different about the LSA setup with the pump and not needing the girdle?

The pickup tube has two bolts versus one on the earlier blocks.

I used the stock LSA pan.

In your 69 Camaro? I know when the previous owner put the LS1 in my car he had to notch the oil pan so that it would fit within the front subframe. I assumed the LSA crate pan would have the same issue but wanted to have a proper pan instead of one that was "customized".

Ls7 has a 4” stroke and pan is very shallow. I don’t see needing a special pan.
