I wish it did it's own. That bitch takes close to 10qts of Mobile 1 0W-40... You have to drain the oil from the turbos, from the "center section" and then the dry sump... Longest Oil Change ever...
Then the oil filter is a fun one too... No matter how softly you put it on when it comes to take it off it's like the incredible hulk put it on...
Which reminds me... It's probably time to do it again...

You never have to do an oil change on an LS1. They just 'consume' it all and you end up replacing most of it before you reach 3k miles. My vette was the only car I ever constantly checked the oil levels on. One drive to the corner store and you use half a tank, of oil.
