Baffled Oil Pan??
I tried the 'search' function but not specific enough. Can anyone advise me if the stock LS1 engine on my '01 T/A has a baffled oil pan? The reason I am asking is for the possible use of a an oil removal system that fits a tube down the dipstick and pumps out the old oil. If the oil pan is baffled, then the tube will not fit all the way down and be able to drain the oil. If this system doesn't work then I'll just revert to the old drain plug oil removal. Thanks in advance!

I am pretty sure the LS1 has a HALF windage tray because of k member issues. the ssr and corvette should have a full windage tray.
the tray is louvered.
To be honest, the ls1 oiling system is ok but could improve. there is horsepower and durability to be had in dry sump and aftermarket wet sump systems assuming no clearance issues.
