Default 67 Firebird Oil Pan

I did a search looking for some info on oil pans and I still have a question or two. I'm building a 70 400 to a 461 for my 67. I was looking at going with the Canton 15-452 pan. I will be lowering the car about 2 inches
My questions are:

Will I have fitment issues?
Will I have problems because of the stroker setup?

Are there any other options that will work in my application? The Canton seems to be the only one that might fit correctly, but maybe I'm not looking hard enough.
Thanks

Well, I bought the pan (14-452, Canton). I have one more question for anyone else using it. Are you using the dipstick required for the pan or the original dipstick? If using the pan dipstick, what do you put in to plug the original hole?

Thanks,

I used the Canton dip stick, and with a tube bender routed along side the trans tube. I tapped a 1/4 pipe plug in the block but that may have been overkill not much pressure. Pan is in my 69 GTO and fit great once I got a mini starter...
