As far as the debate on removing the pan - I use a set of plastic chisels I got from harbor freight (purposefully just for this task). just tap them in with a hammer to loosen the pan.

Also make sure you look VERY closely for all the fasteners.. one of them is kind of hidden behind the cross brace.

AM Perf. Race car team. No longer in business. Remember Shamu? I got his race pan just before he sold the Z. AM Perf made about 20 pans at that time. It's similar to phunk's oil pan with the hinged baffles.

I had an AAM pan spacer before the AM Perf oil pan. Yeah, the spacer used the stock pick up with a spacer. The AM Perf oil pan uses a modified pick up.
