Anyone have experience with a Champ Oil Pan #CP40RB on a '97 Camaro LT1??? This is their 5 quart pan I would like to use on my street legal road course car. I am trying to find an option, other than Canton, and is better then stock. I have had bad luck with the Canton pans. I have tried them twice on 2 separate builds (see youtube video- Ken Cemo Canton).
I am running an oil cooler.
Or should I use the stock pan and find room for an Accusump under the hood?

Champ Pans refers to the Use as Street or road race. I have decided to reuse my OEM and add the Moroso small baffle that fits above the oil pump pickup.

The dimensions as far as oil volume look the same. However the Champ does not allow for the same clearances in some critical areas on my '97 F Body. The exhaust Y pipe and other areas looks like trouble. I don't want change the oil pan after I get the engine in the car!
