This was from about 5 or 6 years ago for the wifes 94 ImpSS. It back out again now after a whole 32,000 miles for a new set up. (She don't drive it much) Old was just Hotcam, mild headwork and all the boltsons with 150 shot. Now thinking of 383 with some type of heads, cam, etc. Haven't really decided.

jamesLT1ta - is that an as-bought turbo kit or did you make it yourself? If so what headers are those?

This is the pan:

Moroso-20205

Fits great with no clearance issues. It's not an LT1 specific pan so it doesn't have the oil level sensor bung.

For me the oil level sensor is a non-factor. I am pretty diligent at maintaining my vehicles and check my oil frequently. I just bypassed the sensor........

I'll try to get some videos once I fix the welds on the hot-parts, third time I have came across a crack. This time it is a big one on the merge pipe to the turbo flange. I bought this car with the motor already done and not running. I wanted to build one myself but got a killer deal on this car. Since I have had the car it has gotten a ford 9in., dual walbros, 3 optis lol, more gauges, 7in touchscreen for tuning hooked a laptop hidden in the glove box, slicks and skinnies on draglites, and lots of tuning.

This is who built the turbo kit

Headers look a lot better in the pics, any idea how much it would be to get them re-coated?

Btw, there are a lot of beautiful lt1's on here. And I personally think the lt1 is a much better looking engine than most ls1's, although I have seen some pretty cool ones, mainly single planes. I actually like the stock lt1 intake a lot better than the stock ls1 intake.
