LS oil pan and laying frame
1 Attachment(s)
This next build is going to lay frame with LS/T56 combo. I've never ran anything but stock pans but I know this build will require it. Most have used the f body or cts-v pan but after some research, Holley has a pan that's even shorter and evenly priced. What is everyone running on these frames with LS.

Re: LS oil pan and laying frame
mine isnt laying frame but i have an f body oil pan and it sits maybe 1/2-1 inch above my crossmember
|
Re: LS oil pan and laying frame
Not sure about the Holley pan, but the Fbody pan works.

I have an F body pan and lowered my motor mounts 2.5 inches and still clear the ground.

Re: LS oil pan and laying frame
I'm not laying frame but have the Holley pan sitting in the garage. It looks to be the thinnest pan out there.

I am running the Holley 302-2 pan laying frame. I only used it because I wanted a little more clearance up front. As for pan depth it measures about the same as the fbody at 5.5. One thing I didnt like about the Holley pan is the windage tray has to be shortened in order to use it. |
Re: LS oil pan and laying frame
the holley pan is the same depth as an f-body pan and depending on which one you get, one has a different profile with more clearance up front.......you can buy a f-body pan for $250 from summit, the holley ones are another $100 more....and you can also get a killer satin black holley pan #302-2bk for $399

Re: LS oil pan and laying frame
Mine isn't laying frame, but if I were, I'd have the clearance with my F-body Pan. Of course, this is on a stock crossmember.

Re: LS oil pan and laying frame
I used the Holley 302-1 oil pan. I like it. from what I see, the f-body oil pan is a good buy. it definitely is cheaper than the Holley. the most expensive oil pan I bought was a regular, truck oil an paid some one to modify it. it leaked from some of the welds. that's how I ended up buying the Holley. advice, pay for what you need, cheaper.

Re: LS oil pan and laying frame
where you at in easley? i might have to stop by next time i visit home in central
i'm running an oe fbody pan with cpp stands/sliders and it sits an inch or more above the factory crossmember. i'll be ordering a full dropmember kit next week so im sure it will still clear. the only thing with my setup that hangs below the frame currently is the 4l80e pan with the cpp trans member. |

I ended with the fbody pan and it is clearing the drop member just mine. I'll be mounting the t56 next week. |

Well after mounting motor in drop member, the f body pan really doesn't fit. It is short enough but the sump is really to far forward. By the numbers the Holley pan is the best choice. I'm going to take some more measurements in the morning and order pan. If anyone needs an f body pan.... I got one !!

I have a truck pan on my c10 now. looking to possibly bag it with the stock cross member. Will this F Body pan work for it? The one now hangs below the cross member quite a bit. Out of town or I'd go measure how much. If it will work, let me know how much and if it comes with everything I'd need to hook it up. I may be interested! |

Re: LS oil pan and laying frame
Which Holley pan did you end up with? I'm installing my DMs and need to swap pans as well. Did you do the 302-1 or the 302-2?
|
Re: LS oil pan and laying frame
I used the Holley 302-2 pan. Check out my posts beginning with #35. I posted several pictures and comparisons. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...=685258&page=2

Only due to my hitch safety rings hitting the ground first. As you can see there is plenty of clearance with the pan both up front and in the rear. Let me know if you have any additional questions on this pan. This also shows that the fbody pan works fine too, as others have stated. |
