Moroso High Clearance LS Engine Oil Pan

For builders installing an LS engine into a classic chassis, the Moroso High Clearance Oil Pan provides the extra ground clearance needed to navigate rough surfaces without risking pan damage. It features a reinforced pickup tube girdle and steel shell that ensures steady oil flow under stress while protecting against impacts from road debris. Installation remains straightforward thanks to its block mount design and integrated AC oil filter boss, so you can fit this pan on Chevy LS blocks without custom modifications. Performance consistency follows through on both street drives and track laps by maintaining reliable lubrication across varied conditions.

Enhanced Ground Clearance for Rough Terrain

The Moroso High Clearance Oil Pan raises the engine sump well above typical chassis obstacles, giving classic hot rods the room needed to clear rocks and uneven pavement without scraping. This added clearance is crucial when fitting an LS powerplant into a vintage frame that sits closer to the ground. By preventing direct contact with debris, the design lowers the risk of punctures or dents that can lead to oil leaks and engine failure. Whether you're cruising back roads or tackling a track day, this pan keeps your lubrication system intact through every challenge.

Reinforced Steel Shell and Pickup Tube Girdle

Constructed from high grade steel, the oil pan body withstands impacts and resists wear far better than standard pans. Inside, an integrated pickup tube girdle locks the tube firmly in place, reducing vibration and maintaining a steady oil supply during hard braking or cornering. This reinforcement not only adds strength but also helps prevent the tube from flexing or being dislodged under extreme load. The result is a more reliable oil pickup system that safeguards critical engine bearings when lateral forces peak.

Reliable Oil Management in Street and Track Conditions

Engineered to keep oil pressurized and in the pickup zone, this pan excels under both low speed cruising and high rev track use. Its deep sump design provides extra oil capacity, helping to control temperature and slosh when cornering at speed. The built-in oil filter boss accepts an AC filter PF46, ensuring that contaminants stay out of the system during high stress. With consistent flow and filtration, you maintain optimum lubrication and reduce wear no matter the driving environment.

Precision Fit for Chevrolet LS Installations

The block mount configuration of this pan is tailored to fit LS engine blocks used in a range of Chevrolet models without requiring trimming or adaptor plates. CNC-drilled bolt holes and machined gasket surfaces guarantee a tight seal, streamlining installation and eliminating alignment headaches. Builders will appreciate the drop-in simplicity that still accommodates stock frame rails and crossmembers. And with the included AC oil filter PF46, routine servicing remains fast and straightforward once the pan is in place.

This oil pan delivers steady lubrication so you can tackle varied chassis layouts with ease. For a high clearance oil pan but not the same as the Moroso oil pan, see our LH8 Oil Pan.
