the fox pans will bolt up but there is a diff. slightly in the area that is between the humps. I think the pan changed in like 92-93.

The biggie comes down when you need to clear a main gurd./support as the pan diff. in the older style will clear as it has a diff. shape.

I had to get a "old" style pan when I got my DSS pro bullit 306. Both will work in a reg. engine swap.
