This product is designed to suit GM LS series engines in many conversion applications. Please note to ensure to check all dimensions before
Installation of this oil pan.
The factory GM LS pans don't always fit or they hang too low for a lot of conversion applications. The Aeroflow Performance LS conversion oil
pan is designed to help! It provides maximum extra clearance to the chassis frames and ground. Designed for LS engine conversion
installations where you require more oil pan to chassis frame clearance around the front half of the oil pan. This cast aluminium oil pan is
modelled off the OEM GM LS oil pan so it shares OEM oil filter mounting, OEM oil cooler port provision, OEM engine NVH suppression, OEM
flange gasket and sealing and OEM bell-housing attachments.
It holds 5.85 litres of engine oil and uses the standard stock block mounted dipstick. Fits the standard oil filter in the standard location. Fits
with a recommend crankshaft stoke of 4.25".
Before final assembly, make sure all parts are thoroughly cleaned. This oil pan contains hinged trap door style baffles, it is advisable to install
the pan with the engine upright to insure no trap doors will be stuck open.
Due to the welding done on these pans, there is always a chance of slight warping. Some oil pans may encounter a slight 'rocking' effect when
laying the pan down on a flat surface. Once the pan is drawn down securely by the bolts and the engine is run, you will find the pan will take a
'set' in the straightened position. We have found that an initial 'rock' of up to a 1/8" ( 3.17mm ) on a new pan is completely acceptable.
