QPres-

Most people swapping in LSX engines know that stock oil pans don't fit into the chassis. If you came into this swap thinking the engine mounts were the only part that were required for installation, you didn't do your research. Even on our products page, catalog and supplement sheet, the fitment of the engine and oil pan clearance is talked about.

Here is an example-
Wheel companies sell 18x12 rims for the rear of Camaro. It won't fit without mini tubbing, but for most people looking at that wheel, it is common knowledge.
We sell bolt on engine plates. People who buy them know up front that the A/C, oil pan, engine mounts, exhaust, and crossmember all need to be changed to allow the install of an LSX engine.

You make it sound like we are intentionally deceiving people with our descriptions when it just not the case. You have mentioned it on other boards in multiple threads. I don't know what you expected when you started your swap, but it seems our plates are the thorn in your side when it comes to your installation. I'll add a notation for future swappers that there will be an oil pan fitment issue, so we don't cause any more issues like we've caused you.
