I would imagine a F-body pan would fit, I don't see any fit issues since the sump is shorter than the stocker. A vette pan may even fit, it has side kickouts and is even shallower- the bolt pattern should be the same for all LSx engines on the pan.

I've got an Fbody LS1 pan on mine right now. We had to hack the windage tray a bit but it fits up fine.

Just make sure you have enough clearance for the oil pick-up.
