Get the specs on a Canton pan (Part #15-240T) It is made to fit on a stock Corvette.
The Moroso that I'm thinking of would clear the cats but hung down below the crossmember by at least an inch. For that reason I didn't consider it but I don't remember the part #.

Thanks, I think that I will go with the Canton. I have read coments on oil leaks with the Canton that is why I was staying away from them.

I've had a couple Canton's leak. Never from the gasket or seal surfaces, always from the welds (and to be fair, I've had Moroso pans leak at the welds before too). If you buy a Canton, before you install it spray each weld heavily with a light solvent like brake cleaner from the inside, then look for seepage. If a weld leaks, braze it up before installing. Or, if you're adventurous, we fixed a leaky weld on my buddy's Canton pan with JB Weld two years ago, and it's still holding many race days later.
