The GTO pan that I'm using is 1.25" deeper than all of the LS corvette pans, and I don't think that I will have to take out more than 1.00". So basically, I'd still be a quarter inch deeper than the C5 and C6 pans, after hacking an inch off the bottom.

If I stay wet sump, I'll be using an accusump, a full length windage tray, and as much of the stock steel baffling as I can, and maybe even a rotating pick-up. That's a lot of insurance

You guys are right, though, general concensus is that modifying a wet sump oil pan is playing with fire.
