I bought an ls2 out of a 06 GTO. Dropped the oil pan to put on one for a Camaro and there on the bottom of the pan were some aluminum shavings. I have been told by a couple of GM service techs that this is not unusual. I am a little more than concerned. Any insight would be great

I see it all the time. You'll see the majority of it during the break in period of a car however. It's nothing to worry about.

if the engine was fairly new it is very usual. however if it was a high mileage motor id get it looked at

It only had 6500 miles. Also it came with the six speed, the clutch and fly wheel are in pretty good shape. So I don't think it was driven extremely hard.

you should be fine with the shavings. just make sure that you have a good oil filter and whatnot.
