Hi Gents, Yesterday I was lowering my motor into place in my 56 f-100 and found that with my MII install the oil pan hit the rack and the cross-member. My solution to the problem was to modify my oil pan. I cut about 5/8" from the front of the pan that tapered to about an inch. Does any see any problems with the new clearance from the shallow portion of the pan and the crank? will there be any unwanted whipping of the oil? I plan to add about a 1" band to the rear of the pan to make up for lost volume. I will also add a small baffle to help keep oil near the pick up. Would it be ok to leave the pick up where it is or does it need to be right at the bottom of the pan? thanks for your help
