Who has done a 5.7 with a833 4 speed Overdrive ?
I have used the Milodon pan on EVERY swap I've done. I have not had any issues with leaks. Aslo, on every one of these swaps, I have used the factory tray/gasket with great success. I saw absolutely no reason to use the gasket and tray from Milodon. Just the pan and pick up tube is the cost of the Holley pan. BUT, BUT, I haven't had the steering linkage issues with the Milodon pan. At the very extreme end of the lock, it does slightly contact the back of the sump. It's already at the end of travel, who cares. I like the integration that Holley has, and the o-ring style sealing. But the whole steering interfaces did it in for me. There's not many people sourcing true "BOLT ON" pieces for the gen 3. Those pieces do exist....
