Is that the pan with the sump that looks like a shallow box with 
reverse-curved corners? Or is it the flared-out deep sump that looks kinda 
triangular from head-on? I have that one in my '65 Coronet which has been 
street driven with no pan trouble for a couple years now. I did have to 
notch one side of the K-member for pan clearance and lightly shim the 
tranny mount for drag link clearance. It is, however, the best aftermarket 
extra-capacity pan I could find in terms of how it fit.
