No don't get that! Thats not an ls1 pan! That's an aftermarket pan they try and advertise that will fit anything. It won't work. It will still hang to low. U need an ls1 only pan. Maybe an ls2...?? I saw that too but luckily a member posted a couple pages back that that it wouldn't work before I bought it. unless ur lucky, its gonna be hard to find one for a good deal. I had to sac up and pay 250 cuz I needed it immediately. But it was new and came with everything needed. Theres an article that shows the diff pans and dimensions. Gto won't work either cuz its a front sump. Ill find the link and post it.

Thanks for the heads up, I'll keep looking. Have you added the oil pan kit to your list of part numbers? If worst comes to worst I'll just pick up the same kit.

[kewljay223]

it wasnt a kit. so theres no part number for it that i know of. im pretty sure it came off a new crate motor that wasnt used.

and mikey, thats just amazing. especially due to the cost of oil... OUCH!

[Jeebalow]

Just to add more information on oil pans. This link has some part numbers that the s10 site doesn't. Mostly the same pans. Hope you don't mind me throwing it up here as well.

well i got some bad news. it wont start. it will crank but wont fire. im sure its something misswired but i dont know where to start. the fuel pump relay is not getting a signal from the pcm. i jumped the terminals to make sure the new pump worked and also to get fuel up to the motor and my gauge read 60psi so all is good there. that tells me there is no injectors or spark or both. and my scanner wont connect to the pcm either. SOUNDS like the computer isnt on but that cant be the case because the pcm makes the starter relay ground, and since my starter is turning, then the computer must be working...right??? But when i turn the key to on, i can hear the TB self adjusting. the computer controls that right? and by the way, i can hear it inside the cab, that sucker is loud....is it supposed to be that loud?

obviously the next thing im going to do is check out my wiring but how can i check the pcm?? i dont know why my scanner doesnt connect. should i post this in the troubleshooting area? maybe ill get ore responses there?

Was your PCM flashed to remove the VATS? Seems like VATS is cutting out the fuel injectors. It might be something else minor too. Don't overlook anything. When you're this close, check for the things that are obvious and not-so-obvious.

Not sure if PCM is supposed to be that loud. I can't tell if mine's that loud since it's mounted under the hood. I've never heard it but I will listen for it in the future to see if it makes any noise.

[kewljay223]

not the computer. the TB is loud. and yes i sent it to brandon like you did so it should be fine. i posted in the troubleshoting area so hopefully ill get some help. but i was able to get my scanner connected today so i know for sure the computer is working correctly and it gave me a code for the APP sensor... i think my pedal might be bad. i got a little rough with it when i was trying to straigten it out. may have broke the sensor and that might be whats keeping the computer for letting the motor fire.
