Best LS swap oil pan

Pick the pan by chassis clearance and crank stroke. Every Gen III/IV pan bolts to every Gen III/IV block; what differs is where the sump sits and how deep it hangs. AFM engines also need the pan's pressure-relief valve (or an AFM delete).

Avoid: the 2010–2015 Camaro/G8 pan (only fits its original car) and stock truck pans in most car swaps (they hang several inches low; on 4WD trucks they hit the front axle). Prices are catalog prices; fitment lists come from 3D scans of each vehicle.
