Aftermarket Oil Pan vs. ASM Headers

The clearance on the ASM headers is tight. I've got to move to an aftermarket pan due to the newly decided on 383 displacement. What i need to know is if there is an aftermarket pan with clearance for the 3.75 stroke AND will leave enough room on the outside for a set of ASM headers as I'm NOT swapping those out.

I have the Canton pan, and Random Technology headers (same as AS&M), and while the headers themselves clear, the y-pipe is another story. The drivers side pipe hits the oil pan as it crosses over, and its therefore impossible to bolt up to both headers at the same time, even after some "persuasion". Looks like I get to modify the y-pipe, just like everything else! I'm switching to LTs soon anway, but I'm ready to get this thing going and $$$ is tight.

I have the same problem with RK sport. Just putting together my 383 with 242t pan, and the y pipe hits the pan where it crosses under the motor.

I don't like these headers and y pipe anyway. Do long tubes go straight back past the motor? I don't like the y pipe running under the pan heating the oil.

Those with the canton 242t what headers are you running?

I knew the canton pan wouldn't clear, but my engine builder got me a Milodon that he says is stock styled with the longer stroke clearance, so we'll see shortly as I'm paying for the motor to be shipped next week.
