Default Oil pan options
Were there any Gen V variants that used a front sump pan, like what was used on the GTO/Holdens?

Did any of the Holdens use the Gen V? If not, I can't think, offhand, of any Gen V apps that would use a front sump pan.

Would like to know this as well. Putting a l86 in a Scion Fr-s and would be easier that way. SO far what I think I've found out is
Corvette has a shallow LT1 pan and Holley conversion pan is pretty shallow. I'm guessing the dry sump pans are pretty shallow too but haven't figured out the list of parts needed for conversion to dry sump.

LOJ conversions has one, but it is stupid expensive.

Actually might be working something out with him for brz/frs 86 chassis. It's pricey but it's a nice unit and will work for road racing

Hi Chris. It's been a long time.

Not very often that I see one of the old crew pop back in like this. Welcome back!
