clearancing oil pan

just wondering how bad are peoples pan fitting? bought the moroso pan and it doesnt seem close to fitting. i have heard people say you need to clearance the pan with a stroker but in my head i saw the pan fitting and then maybe the crank would hit the pan and need to be clearanced in that spot. it looks like the side of my pan is hitting either the throws or the caps. ill find out tonight and update. What are yalls experience?

The throws do tend hit on the sides of the pan near the bolt flange, which is where the block is ground for clearance. My Canton pan itself was wide enough, but the crank scrapers, which are near the bolt flange, hit the throws. I bent 'em.
