and just want to make sure I have everything I need.

12614821 - LH8 Oil Pan
12608593 - Screen
12563918 - Tube (which I am assuming is the dipstick tube)
12603506 - Indicator (Dipstick I presume?)
12612728 - Baffle

Does this look about right?


I still haven't bought my motor yet but will be going with an Fbod LS1 or a Vette LS1 and the assembly is going into a '56 Belair.

FYI the tube is probably the pickup tube and the indicator is probably the oil level sensor in the pan.

I'd check what comes with the pan. Some of it comes with it.

I have NO idea where to find that stuff out and every dealer I have called said they didn't know.

I'll just order the pan and see what it comes with when it gets here.

I have one in my garage right now that I ordered and found out the dipstick and dipstick tube is not right for the cast iron LS based engine. The new aluminum 5.3 in the Hummer has a lower mounting hole. Austin Belair, all the part numbers are correct. The baffle is included w/ the oil pan,as well as pan gasket and bolts. The only thing I see missing on your list is the windage tray for that pan. GM#12611129

I'll flex my newness to the LS motors.

I haven't bought one yet but what are considered cast iron LS motors? I'm assuming NON 5.3 truck based?

Can you use a different dipstick and tube with this pan?

And I need everything on that list PLUS the windage tray and MINUS the baffle?

I'm glad I didn't click 'Submit Order' yet..

The Ls based engine is referred to 2000 and up GM trucks(4.8,5.3,6.0)The LS1 your familiar with in the Vettes,Camaros,GTOs,firebirds. The newer LS2 in later model Vettes,Gtos,and TrailBlazer SS. They now have LS7 and the newest LS9. The cast iron ones are in the trucks. I have a 6.0 that's stroked to a 408 w/ the 2005-2007 Corvette heads.It originally came out of a 2004 HD2500. The dipstick situation hasen't been straightened out yet. I'm using the H* tube w/ the original truck dipstick. Reads a qt over but I know it's right. When I use the H8 dipstick it won't even hit the stick. I've been getting the parts from Don Hewlett out of Georgetown since they're trying to compete w/ Scoggin Dickey pricing. Scoggin Dickey is still pretty good though.

Why not order from LHB on here?

AustinYukon

iTrader: (5)

Gotcha! thanks. I didn't even think about calling Don Hewlett for the parts. I wonder if my buddy that works there can hook me up

So, if I am going the Camaro, T/A, or Vette motor assembly, I should be good to go with this pan setup?

Can you edit my list and suggest what part numbers to order? I would like to order it all tonight.

I have been looking for a fbody pan for my 62 Nova/TCI front/5.3l/4l60e combo.

However, will this pan work with the TCI front and still have good ground clearance?

Thanks

Hey Phil it's me John I met you at the YOE, what oil pan would you reccomend for a 79-85 Caprice frame? My Merc rides on a mid 80's B-Body frame. Also any idea what headers might fit?

v1rot8

Are you recommending this for the TCI front clip with R&P mounted in front?

John,

Hey we take some good shots of your K-member and how the Merc sits on the frame in relation to the firewall as well as ground clearance shots for me and ill figure out what’s best for your project. I need a mock up car for the 80s B-body so I’m probable going to end up sending you a couple different sizes of motor brackets for you to try out for me. I also need you to take a measurement from the center of the bolt hole on each side of the frame for the crossmembers measurements. Also take some shots of the stock crossmember in the car for me. As for headers I pick up the first set of shorty headers on Thursday for the upcoming Super Chevy show and they should be an easy fit or were you looking for long tubes? If you were closer I have your car mocked up for headers here.

Also we are going to need some help with my employees turbo project he spoke with you about when the time comes since you did get a clean 867 to the wheels with yours! So keep in touch and ill make sure we get the Merc to the 21st century.

Phil

If the rack and pinion mounts in the same location as the stock steering linkage then the GTO pan will make your conversion a whole lot easier.
