Front Sump Oil Pan for LS Swaps
Swapping an LS powerplant often exposes limitations in the original oil containment system, this front sump oil pan is a great choice for engine swaps requiring clearance at the rear of the engine where a standard rear sump pan won't work. The Front Sump Oil Pan delivers a front sump design complete with a pickup tube and integrated windage tray to maintain consistent oil pressure during hard acceleration and lateral loads.
Precision Engineering for LS Engines
This oil pan is CNC machined to the exact rail dimensions and bolt pattern of LS engines, ensuring a uniform seal that eliminates common leak paths. The precision fit reduces flange stress and optimizes fastener torque distribution, so installers achieve a secure assembly without guesswork. By maintaining consistent alignment between the block and pan, this design preserves proper oil pressure at idle and full throttle. The resulting assembly supports reliable engine performance and minimizes the risk of gasket failure under high load conditions.
Aluminum Construction
Crafted from aluminum alloy, the Front Sump LS Swap Oil Pan withstands repeated cycles without warping, preserving the integrity of the sealing surface over thousands of miles. This premium material choice resists distortion during prolonged track sessions or spirited street driving, preventing oil starvation caused by pan deformation. A smooth internal finish also reduces turbulence to maintain steady oil volume. Together these attributes deliver long-lasting performance and protect bearings by keeping lubrication consistent under extreme temperature swings.
Girdle Reinforcement and Chassis Integration
An integrated girdle setup braces the lower block area, distributing mechanical loads and preventing pan distortion under high G-forces. This reinforcement enhances block rigidity and works in concert with the deep sump to maintain oil reserve when cornering aggressively. The pan's external profile aligns with popular engine mounts and crossmember kits, streamlining installation into a range of chassis without the need for custom fabrication. The result is a robust platform that supports reliable oil containment and simplified swap procedures.
This durable oil pan selection is engineered to ensure consistent oil pressure under all conditions and will maintain reliable lubrication for your LS swap. This is an engine swap oil, not a replacement oil pan for 2005-2007 GTO applications.
