Conversion Oil Pan for LT Engine Series Swaps
The LT Engine Series Conversion Oil Pan is designed to solve clearance and oil pickup challenges when installing an LT engine into a chassis that was not engineered for its original oil pan. It offers a precise fit with popular LT conversion kits while preserving a five quart capacity for reliable oil supply. Cast from lightweight aluminum, it sheds excess pan weight, improves heat dissipation and integrates provisions for AC Delco PF48 filters plus GM dipstick components so the swap proceeds without added modifications.
Lightweight Aluminum Construction for Enhanced Efficiency
Constructed entirely from cast aluminum, this oil pan sheds significant mass compared to stock steel designs, contributing to improved throttle response and modest gains in fuel economy. The natural thermal conductivity of the alloy promotes rapid heat transfer away from engine oil, helping maintain stable operating temperatures under demanding conditions. Its robust casting resists corrosion and deformation, ensuring a consistent seal against the engine block over time. By reducing rotating assembly load and aiding heat dissipation, the pan supports both reliability and spirited driving.
Five Quart Oil Capacity Ensuring Consistent Lubrication
Designed to hold up to five quarts of oil, the pan maintains a steady reservoir even during hard cornering or heavy acceleration, reducing the risk of oil starvation at the pickup. The deep sump profile provides a reserve of fluid that sustains pressurization, preserving hydrodynamic film between bearings, cam lobes, and crank journals. Consistent oil flow under varying G-forces minimizes wear and friction, extending engine life and ensuring reliable performance. This capacity strikes a balance between low pans for ground clearance and sufficient volume for demanding applications.
Precision Fit with LT Conversion Kits
Engineered specifically for LT engine swaps, this pan's bolt pattern and sump geometry align exactly with popular conversion components, eliminating the need for block or chassis modifications. Tight tolerances ensure even gasket compression, reducing the likelihood of leaks and cutting installation time. Integrated provisions for GM dipstick tube and sensor ports mean builders can reuse factory hardware without adapters. This precise fitment approach streamlines assembly and instills confidence in every swap.
Direct AC Delco PF48 Filter Compatibility Streamlining Installation
The pan incorporates an OEM-style boss for the AC Delco PF48 oil filter, allowing filter changes with no additional fittings or adapters. By matching factory thread and sealing surfaces, it delivers reliable oil flow and leak-free service over extended intervals. Use of a widely available filter element simplifies maintenance logistics and reduces service downtime. This seamless filter interface upholds consistent filtration performance and supports routine engine care with minimal effort.
Engineered for a precise fit and reliable operation throughout your LT swap.
