The LS7 is using a double-row oil pump and a larger cam cover. I assume the oil will be routed to the rear of the engine (and back) by plumbing it through the oil pan.
Hopefully (have questions to those who know) the pump, cover, and pan will bolt right onto the LS2/LS1/LS6 engines.

If the LS1 pan goes on the LS2 I think we know the answer as well.
I want to put LS2 pan on my C5.

What are you guys doing to have oil starvation. While the LS2 pan might help a little, the LS1/LS6 pan (corvette anyway) worked fine. If you're really have problems, an accusump is a cheap, easy mod that should solve all of your problems. This is what I ran in my old non-drysumped World Challenge car, and I never had any starvation except on one very highly used (worn out) engine, and even that was at the long, off camber carousel at Sears Point.

The F-body LS1 pan is inferior to the Vette LS1/6 pan for oil control, at least from what I know. Autocrossing places just as much strain on the oiling system as RR/OT, so any ability to better control the oil is welcomed. True, an Accusump is a good piece, but some classes may not allow it and therefore a more "stealthy" approach is required.
Since it appears the LS2 pan fits, what is the price?
