Description
Retrofitting an LS engine into a classic GM muscle car chassis means finding an oil pan that clears the crossmember and steering while still working with the stock oil pickup and filter. This cast-aluminum, rear-sump oil pan is built for that swap, fitting LS Gen III/IV engines (4.8L, 5.3L, 5.7L/350, 6.0L, and 6.2L) into GM rear-wheel-drive chassis originally equipped with a factory rear-sump small or big block Chevy pan.
Because the pan mounts to the stock LS oil pickup and retains the factory oil filter location, it's designed to bolt into place without switching to a dry-sump system or relocating the filter housing. It provides up to 4.250 inches of stroke clearance and a maximum pan depth of 5.690 inches, giving builders running longer-stroke LS combinations room to work.
Cast from lightweight aluminum with a satin finish, the pan holds 6.0 quarts and includes internal baffling to help control oil movement under acceleration and cornering. It is not designed for LS7 or LS9 dry-sump applications or GM G-body platforms. Installation requires an LS3-style dipstick and tube (GM #12669528 and #12625031), and engine position may need adjustment for clearance depending on the vehicle.
Applications
Covers LS Gen III/IV displacements: 4.8L (293 in³), 5.3L (325 in³), 5.7L/350 (346 in³), 6.0L (364 in³), and 6.2L (376 in³). Designed for wet-sump LS engines only — not compatible with LS7 or LS9 dry-sump platforms, and not intended for GM G-body applications.
Installation
Includes gasket, mounting hardware, drain plug, oil pickup, oil filter stud, and oil passage cover. Uses 17 mounting holes and an M12 x 1.75 drain plug thread. Requires an LS3-style dipstick and tube (GM #12669528 and #12625031). Engine fore/aft position and height may need adjustment for chassis clearance depending on the vehicle.
