I am currently in the process of building a SBC for my LT1 trans am and was wondering what oil pan I should use with my gen 1 block which uses a 2 piece rear main seal instead of the 1 piece on the LT1 block. I will be using the stock k member and have been trying to find specs on the stock lt1 pan so I can get something close to the same size to make sure everything fits properly.

Thanks,
Rob

For anyone else looking for info on a 2 piece rear main seal pan I went with a B&B drag race pan for my SBC. It is a very nice pan for the price, I should be putting it on the motor in the next few weeks.

are the dipsticks on the same side for both style motors ?

I'm pretty sure the dipstick on my new motor is on the left hand side compared to the right hand side on the LT1 in it now. The pan and shortblock are at the engine shop so Ill have to check it out to make sure.
