Same block, you mean the 385 series is a 460 block too, then yes.

I had the kick out pan by Canton, which is 8qts if I remember correctly. Maybe 9 ? 
A dry sump system like on the sprint car or like the Vette, would be ok, but expensive. It would have to be a retro-kit.
That's always an option - a custom oil pan could allow you to drop the engine further than you could otherwise. FWIW, my clearance issue is now the bellhousing, not the oil pan. |
How much did yours cost ?
Do you have pics ?
Ya, my flywheel cover hit the street one time coming out of a parking lot, and it wasn't that steep.....
