LSx Oil Pan Spacers
LSx Oil Pan Spacers When building our 479 ci LSx tall deck engine for our GTO shop car we found the need to space the oil pan down to clear the big 4.350 stroke crank.
Since there are no fabricated oil pans available plus they are expensive, we decided to design a 3/8" oil pan spacer to allow the oil pan to sit lower so that the big stroke crank has room to spin.
Our LSx oil pan spacers will bolt up to any LS series block and are 3/8" thick.
You will need 1/2 longer oil pan bolts to use the spacer since you have to add an oil pan gasket for sealing. We are working on a hardware kit but it isnt available yet. The longer fasteners can be sourced at most hardware stores.
The Gforce LSx oil pan spacers are cnc machined from 6061 aluminum to ensure a perfect fit.
The spacers are $179. and are available on our web site.

LOL.. I was wondering when that question would pop up.

Contact Burgers on here for more info if you want one built.

Chris and Gforce are great guys to deal, check out somemore of his high quality part on his site, they are all I am using in my high HP GTO build.
Chris, I need some of those spacer for the Sunflower swap at the end of the month, Don't sell them all!

Were going down to Houston this month, you should tag along. This engine is a beast on the bottle!
