Anybody scored the oil pan kit yet or should I buy it in pieces ctsv pan is $200 LH8 is $113? I know I can use the windage tray from the truck
I'm about ready to let the truck pan drag in my g-body swap

 

I ended up buying the pan, pickup tube, dipstick, and indicator tube, from camarols1, he got me a good deal on it and was honest enough to tell me I didn't need the baffle, since I was replacing a truck pan.

 

Check out the new GMPP Muscle Car Oil pan kit.. it is listed in the GMPP catalog (Pg 221) and the last page of the FAQ "Identifying LS oil pans - including measurements", post #87

 

Thats what I'm talking about part #19212593 It's a smoking deal just trying to figure how moch more it's going to cost by buying the pieces seperate I might put the motor in with the truck pan and change it later when I can get my hands on this kit-I'm on too tite of a budget right now to spend $250 or else I wouls just get the kit from BHP

 

That is a good deal for new stuff. I'd like to see some dimensions.

 

The lh8 is on nationwide backorder from GM so its worth its weight in gold right now.

 

No its not, only the kit is, you can still buy all the pieces seperate. I've bought 2 in the past month, from 2 seperate sources. If you're trading out the truck pan you can keep the old baffle, so you only need to buy the Pan, Pickup tube, dipstick, and indicator tube.

 

How do you guys find out the price from the part number. Do you need to call a dealer? or is there a website other than gmperformanceparts.com because when I search for that pan kit it say's there is no part with that #.

Thanks

Try www.gmpartsdirect.com

 

Thanks for the link alowerlevel,
still the same results though. Looks like I will be ordering the CTSv pan and parts today since the "Muscle Car" pan kit isn't available.....

Thanks

Rob

 

So just to clarify - the LH8 pan is the "new" GMPP Muscle Car Pan?

 

Yes it is

 

does any one have the part #'s to buy this kit seperatly

Thanks

 

Try BRP Hotrods. I bought an LH8 oil pan kit and some other stuff from him last summer. Phil is a great guy to do business with. Also, he ships via USPS. That saves me a few $$ here in Hawaii.

I ordered the pan 12614821,pump pickup 12608593,tube 12584738,stick 12603506 $174 total with thier ripoff shipping all special order no refund

 

What about a baffle?

 

I'm replacing a truck pan so I have the baffle how much shorter is the LH8 pan than an 03 truck pan -looks like only 1"?

 

I bought part# 19212593 from pace performance about 3/4 months ago. It cost me 165. Now I think they want 180. It comes with everything needed to install.

 

The kit is on national back order, you can only buy it as parts. Did you check your dipstick and tube to make sure they indicated the correct full level?
