Camaro/Firbird Oil Pan

Are all third gen Camaro and Firebird oil pans the same? I am swaping a 87 corvette TPI motor in my iroc and to my knowledge the vette one will not work. So if anyone can help.
Thanks

Yes, the Corvette oil pan is too big for an F-body.

Remember to swap the pickup tube and screen when you change to the f-body pan. They are cheap at the dealers. I just bought a new f-body pan and pickup at a chevy dealer for about $115. I then sold the corvette pan on e-bay for about half that.
