Wondering if anyone has cracked the factory PCM for the LS7 of if the aftermarket is my only choice. Several people have said they are close or working on it but nothing yet.

Also - anyone have a dry sump system they want to share some pictures of? Seems straightforward but information is always welcome. Someone on the list was going to manufacture an adaptor - did that get off the ground?

What kind of dry sump? What adapter?

Someone was going to make an adaptor to the GM pan to have AN fittings on the outside to allow us of braided hose versus the unique GM peices. I hate to buy the GM lines only to cut them up. I planned on using an aftermarket Moroso or Barnes dry sump tank but the connection to the pan looks very unique.

Any hints on the PCM or go with Big Stuff?

It's in works now.. Scott will probably answer specifics when he sees the post.

A shop in Dallas has. 21st Century MotorSports I think is the name. They are affiliated with Lingenfelter.

I hardly ever travel. Hard enough to keep up here. Haven't talked to Mike in a year or so. I'll let you know what it makes. Should be interesting.

Take care, Ed

Can you share how you managed to get the LS7 running on the factory PCM? Or did you replace it with the LS1 style arrangement? I do not want to disassemble the engine and swap reluctors etc.

It's in a new Z06 Vette. If you are talking about an engine swap, I guess I missed that part. Sorry.

I did buy a factory hose and am welding tubes and -16 fittings to them.

Scott will chime in here shortly on the adapter manifold!

To have such a great engine like the LS7 and be reduced to running it with a "lawnmower PCM" like the "Marine" Delphi MEFI IV, whata joke!

GMPP

we have -12 fittings available frrom the gmpp catalog. the part# is 25534412 and it includes 2 fittings bolts and gaskets. these parts will adapt the stock pan to an style fittings. contact your local gmpp dealer for ordering. They are listed in the 2006 catalog.

Also per the latest issue of Hot Rod magizine, the ls 7 article states how the engine has been run.

Wow, I wasn't aware that old MEFI IV marine box used a can interface. Hmmm, learn something new every day.

Why did GM go with -12 fittings? These are only 0.625" I.D. while the stock LS7 OEM fittings are 0.711" I.D. which is a lot closer to 3/4" than it is 5/8". Personally I would never use a smaller diameter than the OEM set-up on my motor!

LPE is advertising on Z06 forums that they can tune the LS7 PCM. 21 Century in Dallas is part of the LPE family, so they probably can do it as well.

Does't the -12 actually stand for 12 1/16th of an inch? that would make the fittings .750 i.d. I thought that the dash number stood for the number of 1/16 of an inch. I may be wrong.

Builder

Yes, it's 12 x 1/16th. But, I think that's the O.D. ...the reason being that the I.D. is determined by the material. For example, Earls -6 hose is almost as large on the inside as some company's -8.
