Default oil pan clearance problem

I have put in a 600" motor in my 67, now the oil pan hits the top of the steering. Does nayone know if they make a any extensions for the pinion(?) and the gear box. I need t get about 3/4 inch, can not raise the engine due to hood clearance.

Notch the oil pan to clear the steering, I think the Chevy Monza had one from the factory.

Exactly, where is the pan hitting your steering?
