LS2 oil pan options?

[oldchevyguy]

Hi:
As I said before, I bought a roller, that was a fuel economy "race car". I am now buying parts to make it a street legal supercar. I bought a 06 LS2 out of a GTO. It has a front sump oil pan. I haven't tried fitting it yet, but it looks like the pan has to go. Any suggestions? Also, thanks to member SRESSUE from Marion NY! He let me look at his beautiful GTM, and ask a lot of questions! His car has a aluminum grille and some other parts made by some guy on this forum. Anyone have contact information? Thanks, Bill

Hi oldchevyguy,
It was great having you and your wife visit to look at my GTM. I hope I was of some help getting you going. A lot of my parts came from Shane at VRAPTOR SPEEDWORKS. He is a great supplier of GTM parts. I'm sure once you visit his parts list you see many of the parts that are on my car.

Hi Bill,

Yes, I do offer quite a few custom parts for the GTM. My website is in my signature. For oil pans, I would say your best options are to go with the "batwing" oil pan from a Corvette.......or, it seems that most crate engines say they come with the Camaro oil pan, and I have never had an issue with fitment of an LS crate engine into the GTM chassis. Of course, whatever oil pan you choose, I assume you would also need the corresponding oil pick-up to go with it.

Yes Shane, I am interested in your products, and will buy the grille and some other parts too. You mentioned the Camaro oil pan. Is this what you mean? http://www.ebay.com/itm/272328258364?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT Will that work? What do I have a gen 1 or gen 2 GTM? It was bought in 2010. Thanks!
