The low profile Milodon fits perfectly if you shave an inch off the corners. Why go the more difficult route of notching & potentially weakening the K?
The notch in the k-member is not enough to worry about. It's confined to the lip area, not in the boxed area. But welding a bead across the cut section would be a lot easier than cutting up a nice oil pan!
Besides, I like the fact that the 8 qt. is flared and a little shallower than the Moroso, but deeper than the 7 qt. Milodon Lo-Pro. The only down-side to the Milodon 8 qt. is that TTI headers are one of only 2 or 3 conventional headers that will work with it. Milodon may have addressed that problem with their 7 qt.
