I want to gain some ground clearance w/ my oil pan. I have a single line ext. Milodon oil system and currently using the 31015 Milodon pan. It's their normal deep sump w/ the single hole for the pickup. I'm tired of it leaking from repairs after hitting pavement.

The 30931 pan is what I need, but I already have a 30930 pan in the shop that I could put on. The 30930 is the low profile pan but does not have the hole for the external pickup. Putting the hole in it isn't a problem, my concern is that the sides of the pan are not flat so the static pickup will be tilted.
I don't think it would be an issue as long as the pickup is placed as low as possible in the sump, but I'd like to hear from someone who has done it.
Anyone have any input/advice/horror stories?
Thanks
