Default Ls swap kit

I just used this kit on my 66 Chevelle. I love the oil pan and remote filter offered with it. Holds 7 quarts of oil and the pan is fully baffled. The headers are beautiful and everything has a 1/8" to a 1/4" of clearance around everything.

I've been on the fence with this kit as well. Where is the optimal position for the remote oil filter on a 1st gen f body? With notching the frame, is there enough clearance for a low mount ac compressor on the 2010 F body accesories drive? Does anyone have a pic of the firewall clearance?

What kind of options does it give you for front tire fitment? I like to get 275/17s under the front of my 67 GTO.

What is the lowest point under the car, headers or oil pan?

I'm running a super simple system my engine builder designed and I'm switching to the wegner setup and a whipple. Mine was the first kit used in the 64-67 a-body and jay at speedtech helped me so much I would of payed double. Lol. The customer service was amazing and the fitment was great. The headers are the lowest point but not much lower than the front crossmember.
