^^^ that'd be my take. I ain't that far on mine (408) tho it does have 50 under rod bearings to destroke & (slightly) help deal with the tall pistons.

The longer main studs can require some slight dimpling of the pan. There's a good post going on about this over at A-Bodies Only.

Yes I had to check the main stud clearances of the main cap one from the rear, #4, under the center upkick in the pan when running a windage tray with main studs that had an adjustable height feature. Basically when there is extra bolt material sticking up past the nut that fastens the windage tray.

Anyone out there running a 408 stroker engine with the Milodon road race oil pan?
I have heard conflicting comments on if this pan causes interference with the longer rods in the 408......
Thanks for any info that can be supplied..... I run the same 4" stroke as you with I beam scat rods. Not even close. The only thing would be the windage tray attachments that I described in post above
