Looks very nice and clean!

Sorry to burst your bubble, but I just noticed something else from your last picture.  You've got GTO engine mounts and you need those from a C5, I had the exact same problem as you.  Your driver's side should be fine, but you'll need to change the passenger side mount.  See this thread for more info: http://www.norotors.com/index.php?topic=7872.0

Also as an FYI, if that's the stock A/C compressor it will not fit within the FD frame rails (at least mine didn't and my motor was from an '06 GTO). I went with an '02 Camero (rear hose hookups) compressor. Fit no problem.

Thanks again. Keep em coming. The more I know before putting this in the better.

Question: I promised I searched. What do I do about the oil pan? Does this one work or do I need to change it out?

Yep, that's the one.   You also need the pickup tube, and a windage tray (or you can modify the windage tray you have, it just needs trimmed shorter).

This looks nice. Makes me want to take mine apart and clean it up and paint it but I drive mine everyday. Keep up the good pics and updates.

Thanks, I just place the order. Just trying to get everything ready before the Samberg kit arrives.
