Default Oil Pan Thread

I can't find the thread that shows the corvette LS1 oil pan dimensions. Does anyone have them? S&P doesn't show the vette pan either.

Thanks

Could have sworn it was in a sticky up top. Just went looking for it and couldn't find it.

What was posted was a copy of a page out of the GM LS1 Engine Kit Installation Guide, which is available from a lot of sources (I think Summit even stocks it), usually for under $15. GM Part number for the manual is 88959384. It isn't the end all be all conversion manual or anything, but there is probably enough info in there to be worth $15.

Actually, Street and Performance does show the dimensions. You have to click on the online catalogs link, and wait for the catalog to download. They have dimensions of several pans in the catalog.

I tried S&P again as suggested, and I can't pull it up. Probably because of my dial up. I anyone can get the dimensions and send them my way, I'd be forever grateful.

Thanks

If anyone is interested, I have an ASA racing series dry sump setup sitting in my garage that I will not use. I bought it from ebay. I forget the exact price. I think it was either $350 or $500. The engine was blown, and there are bits of metal in the pan, so the pump will need to be rebuilt. I have the pan, pump, hoses, brackets.

I don't know what the forum rules are for this type of post - hopefully i'm not violating any rules. If anyone is interested, I'll go dig up how much I paid for it, and get some pics.
