It seems to me that the oil pan clearance problems with most of the aftermarket IFS systems are ther result of the ridiculous amount of lowering that's built into most of them. If you use a stock setup like the Camaro/Nova subframe or a narrowed real truck suspension, you're not likely to encounter the same set of problems. The IFS system I have planned for my 59 Burb is going to be a late-70's 3/4 ton setup with disc brakes, narrowed if necessary to fit the 59 frame. I've already got a GMC Dana 60 rear end under the truck, and I'm planning on a 500 Cad/Turbo 400 drivetrain. It depends on whether you're keeping the rig for use as a truck, or building some sort of lowrider Cowboy Cadillac resto-rod.
