ah, back to front clearance. was hoping it would work with the hanging low clearance lol. being hopeful myself. does it also matter with the different swap mounts you use? or thats only for front and back clearance?

to the op, ive even read around on some people sectioning their stock pan for clearance. now, im not sure how much oil capacity is lost, and what else is involved...but it sounds like definitely a possibility.
