LS1 oil pans. Extend LS1 engine life
Our extensive dyno and track testing has shown the weak point of the Commodore LS1 oil pan to consistently be the factory internal oil line system.
We have addressed this problem with 2 new oil pan options for LS1 owners. By deleting the factory oil lines and taking full volume oil pressure directly from the blocks main oil galley via dash 10 braided stainless hoses and hi flow fittings we have eliminated the ridiculous number of flow reducing bends created by the factory internal hose system.
Our new system has been created through the manufacture of very free flowing billet alloy adapters with built in "O" ring seals, a custom made rear oil galley flow fitting and direct oil flow through the external braided hoses shown.
Aside from the obvious advantage of uninterrupted increased oil flow volume, the deletion of internal steel hoses increases oil pan capacity and reduces crankshaft induced windage. The new external hoses also act as very effective oil cooling lines so there is no need for additional oil cooler setups although these can also be incorporated easily if desired.
We offer our pans in 2 forms:
1) External oiling system fitted to your existing pan or on a changeover basis for $1100.00 This pan is standard on all our 383ci Stroker LS1 engine packages.
2) External oiling system fitted and extra capacity kickouts fitted to your pan or supplied on an exchange basis for $1650.00 This is an ideal pan for the bigger engines doing more extreme use where the extra 1.5 litre capacity will be useful.
Other LS1 products coming soon will be our new billet alloy 84mm throttle bodies for maximum air flow, torque and power from your 5.7 or Stroker engine.
We decided that a simple casting is not the way to go like others on the market. The billet alloy version will be more consistent in its heat dissipating charecteristics as well as lending itself to more precise flow radius machining for maximum airflow. These will retail for $695.00 approximately and be available in the next month after our final dyno testing has been completed.
