Default L92 swap question

I'm in the middle of swaping an l92 into a 04 silverado that has the 5.3. My question is on the oil pan...the 5.3 oil pan has an oil sensor on the side and the l92 dosen't. Do I need to swap the oil pans? How does the l92 read the oil level if it dosn't have the sensor? I'm using the stock 04 pcm with the lingenfelter box. Thanks,

5.3 oil pan


6.2 Oil pan

I don't know how the L92 reads it, but I'm reusing the LS1 pan w/ LS1 sensor with mine along with the Lingenfelter box and it seems to work. You may want to just reuse the 5.3 pan and sensor unless you can tap the pan to use the sensor.

I swaped the pan out for the 5.3 one. Thanks,

Took all that out and put a gen 3 224 cam and gear on it with an ls2 timing cover.
