You can notch the crossmember like I did on mine. http://www.s10racer.com/board/showthread.php?t=230

It's not that hard if you have the tools. I also cut the firewall back so that it will be easier to drop the tranny should I need too...

mine is dedicated to the strip and i use a stock 5 quart pan and it clears the crossmember and the firewal can be taken care of w/ a BFH....

Milodon sells a "claimer" pan. It's the same deminsions as a stock pan but, has a windage tray in it. You can usually find it in the circle track section of Jegs, and Summit.
