I'm going to bag it. I will require the pan to be at the crossmember or higher. Looks like the Caddy pan will be my best bet then.

Will I need all the CTS internals that go in the pan or will the truck pan guts work inside it.

I have a set of unknown adaptor plates, sounds like sliders are the builders choice, is it because of the adjustability or are the built better than the others?
