Possible second glitch in LS1 conversion...

[coachreed]

Okey Dokey... oil pan is back from the welders... I won't get to fit it back to the motor until tomorrow at best... then I can test fit to the VX to see if it was successful... lets keep our fingers crossed... check the link below... go to "Latest News" or whatever I called it... anyway, there are before and after pictures of the oil pan... total cost: 2 hours... $120... it is welded inside and out... I have been told by more than one person that the quality of aluminum castings causes poris surfaces when welded... the welder did both sides to insure good stength and also to insure no leaks... check it out... I'll post pictures of the installed motor... as long as it clears! lol

Wow, the welds on that pan look awesome! Like a stack of quarters!

Looks like it should work great; it appears that the oil can still run back to the sump without a problem, and capacity is likely only a little less than stock.
