LS oil pan guide: how to pick a pan that fits
An LS pan swap needs the pan plus a matching pickup, windage tray, dipstick and tube, gasket or sealant, oil filter, and the pickup bolt and stud nut. The part numbers change with the pan. The checklist is first, then how to measure, then the pan-by-pan parts, then every pan compared by depth.

Parts you need with the pan
Buy the pickup, tray, dipstick and tube, gasket or sealant, filter, and pickup bolt that match that pan. A mismatched pickup sucks air. Measure in Step 2.
Every pan swap
- Gasket or sealant. A used gasket is crushed. Use the one that pan calls for.
- O-ring or pickup gasket. The old seal gets cut coming out, and that leak sucks air.
- Pickup bolt. The screen has to stay on the pump.
- Filter. Match the mount. An AN pan needs the remote filter it is plumbed for.
- Oil and dipstick. Fill to that pan's capacity and use its stick. A truck stick reads full in a shallow sump.
- Pan bolts. A cast pan bolts to the bellhousing. A fabricated pan may not. Use that pan's torque.

How we put this guide together
We read through 2,012 LS swap questions pulled from forum threads, and 58 of them were about the oil pan. The same few problems come up again and again: the pan sits on the front crossmember, a lowered truck ends up with the sump hanging below the frame, or a 4x4's front differential runs into the pan when the suspension compresses. We answered them with real dimensions instead of forum guesses: GM part numbers, and measured depths and sump positions for the factory and aftermarket pans.
Here's the process that falls out of that research. It works for any chassis.
Step 1: Find out where your chassis needs the sump
Every LS pan has a deep section (the sump, where the oil collects) and a shallow section. What decides whether a pan fits is where your car's front crossmember, steering linkage or front differential sits relative to the engine.
- Crossmember or diff under the front of the engine (most GM cars and trucks, many imports): you need a rear-sump pan, with the deep part behind the obstruction.
- Obstruction under the back of the engine: you need a front-sump pan. Examples in our data: the Pontiac GTO/Holden Commodore pan, and Moroso's front-sump swap pan made for the Subaru BRZ/Toyota 86 and Nissan 240SX S14.
- Obstruction in the middle: look for a mid-sump pan made for that chassis (Sikky's E39 BMW pan is one example).
If a swap kit maker sells mounts for your car, their instructions usually name the pan that fits. Check your vehicle's swap guide first.
Step 2: Measure your clearance
Do this with the engine sitting where the mounts will hold it. Mock-up is fine; the engine doesn't need to be running.
- Set the engine at its final height and angle. Pan clearance changes with mount position, so measure with the mounts you'll actually run.
- Measure straight down from the engine's oil pan rail (the machined surface on the bottom of the block where the pan bolts on) to the top of whatever sits under it: crossmember, steering center link, front diff. Take this measurement at the front, middle and rear of the pan's footprint.
- Note where along the engine each obstruction is. A pan's sump is only so long, so an obstruction 4 in. from the front of the pan and one 15 in. back need different pans.
- Measure ground clearance too. Lowered cars and trucks can clear the crossmember and still end up with the lowest point of the car being the oil pan.
- On a 4x4, check at full suspension compression, not at ride height. The front diff moves up toward the pan.
Now compare your numbers to the pan depths and section lengths in the compare table. Depth is how far the pan hangs below the block, taken from the maker's drawings or scans.
Step 3: Pick the pan
With your sump position and clearance numbers, the compare table narrows it down quickly. A few things the research made clear:
- The factory truck pan hangs low. In a C10, most stock LS truck pans clear the crossmember but hang several inches below it. The LH8 "Muscle Car" pan (about 0.5 in. below) or a Holley 302-series pan is the usual fix.
- The F-body (1998–2002 Camaro/Firebird) pan (12628771) is 5.62 in. deep with an 11.71 in. deep section. Holley's 302-2 is built to fit anywhere this F-body pan fits (1967–69 Camaro/Firebird, 1968–74 Nova, 1982–92 F-body, 1978–87 G-body, 1964–72 A-body).
- The C6 Corvette pan (12624617) is the shallowest wet-sump pan measured here (4.85 in.), but its deep section is also the longest (13.57 in.), so check clearance along its whole length.
- Avoid the 2010–2015 Camaro/G8/Caprice pan for swaps. It only fits its original application, tube chassis and boats, even though it's common on crate engines.
- Front-sump options: the GTO/VZ Commodore pan (6.30 in.) or Moroso's front-sump swap pan. The GTO pickup tube assembly is no longer available, so don't buy a used one with a broken pickup.
Or skip the table and use the oil pan picker.
Step 4: Get the parts that go with it
The short list is Parts you need with the pan. The part numbers, sorted by pan, are in Pan-by-pan parts details. Three limits decide whether a pan is even a candidate:
- Stroke. The 302-2 stops at 3.62 in, so it will not take an LS7 crank. The 302-1 and the 302-2 are not for an engine that originally used a dry sump. The 302-1 is rated to 4.25 in. The 302-3, 302-5, and 302-4 stop at 4.00 in. The LT pans 302-20 and 302-24 stop at 4.0 in. Moroso 20139, 20140, 20141, 20142, 21150, 21152, 20111, and 27470 clear 4.25 in with most steel rods. Canton 16-278 clears 4.25 in. Moroso 20131 clears 4.125 in with most steel rods. Canton 13-274 clears 4.125 in.
- Pickup. The 302-series kits and the 21150 include one. Moroso 20139, 20140, 20141, 20142, and 21152 need pickup 24050. Moroso 20131 needs 24131 on a GM LS block and 24132 on a Dart LS Next block. Moroso 21172 needs 24172. A used GM pan needs the pickup that came with that pan.
- Filter mount. The Holley cast pans keep a spin-on mount (PF48 family on the LS pans, PF64 on the LT pans). Canton 15-274, 13-274, and 16-278 need remote adapter 22-630 or 22-632, or filter mount 22-631. Milodon 31063 and 31083 need remote kit 21575. Sikky OP001 needs a pan-mounted adapter, OPB-01 or OPB-02, and the separate relocation kit for the filter base and lines.
Step 5: Check it with the engine in
Before you fill it with oil: bolt the pan up, set the engine in on its mounts, and check all the clearances again, including with the suspension compressed on a 4x4. It's much easier to swap a pan now than after the rest of the engine is plumbed and wired.
If you find a pan that fits your chassis that we haven't listed, tell us.
Pan-by-pan parts details
The short list is Parts you need with the pan. Full install notes are here, then each pan.
On every pan
Match these to the pan you bought. Holley cast-pan torque is in the next section. Sikky's bolt torque is in the Sikky section.
- Pan gasket, or the sealant that pan uses. A used gasket is already crushed. A used GM pan needs a new gasket of the same type that came off it.
- New pickup O-ring, or the pickup gasket. The old seal gets cut when the tube comes out, and a leak at the pump inlet sucks air. Throw the old seal away. No GM O-ring number is printed with the Holley LS kits, so none is listed here.
- New pickup bolt. The screen has to stay on the pump.
- Oil filter that matches the mount. A fabricated pan with AN fittings needs the remote filter that pan is plumbed for. Tighten the filter the way the filter maker specifies.
- Oil and dipstick. Fill to that pan's capacity and use the stick that reads that sump. A truck stick in a shallow car sump reads full while the pickup is sucking air. Some blocks have a plug in the dipstick hole that has to come out before the tube will go in.
A cast pan bolts to the bellhousing, so the rear face of the pan has to sit flush with the rear face of the block. A fabricated pan may not use those bolts. Use that pan's torque. More: oil pan torque.
Holley cast-pan torque
These figures apply only to the part numbers in each group.
302-1, 302-2, 302-3, 302-3BK, 302-5, 302-4, and 302-4BK
| Item | Spec | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Pickup bolts and stud nut | 106 in-lb and 18 ft-lb | The screen has to stay sealed in the pump and on the stud. |
| Pan to block and front cover | 18 ft-lb, from the center out | The rail has to pull down even. |
| Pan to rear cover | 106 in-lb | Those are the small rear-cover bolts. |
| Bellhousing to pan | 37 ft-lb | The cast pan is a structural member. |
| Transmission cover bolts | 106 in-lb | Those covers close the back of the pan. |
| Supplied drain plug | 18 ft-lb, after the thread insert is in the hole | A missing insert strips the aluminum. |
| Supplied filter adapter | 40 ft-lb | That adapter ships in these kits. |
| Filter | PF48, PF48E, Mobil 1 M1-113, Wix 57060, or K&N HP-1017 | These pans keep the LS filter mount. |
| Gasket | GM 12612350 or Mr. Gasket 6665G | The gasket seals the rail and holds the pan bolts. |
| RTV | 5 mm bead, 20 mm long, on the front-cover tab and the rear-cover tab | The one-piece gasket does not seal those two joints. |
| Extra bolts GM 12554990 | 302-3, 302-3BK, 302-5, 302-4, and 302-4BK only. Not in the box. M6 x 136 mm, two per engine. No hole location is printed with the part number. | The kit is short two pan bolts. 302-1 and 302-2 do not list them. |
302-20, 302-20BK, and 302-21
| Item | Spec | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Pickup bolts | 10 ft-lb | The LT pickup seals with a gasket. |
| Windage tray | 10 ft-lb with thread locker. Seven M6 x 12 bolts, plus one M6 x 16 through the pickup bracket. | The long bolt also clamps the pickup bracket. |
| Pan bolts | 18 ft-lb. The M6 bolts are 106 in-lb. | The rail still has to pull down even. |
| Bellhousing to pan | 37 ft-lb | This cast pan bolts to the bellhousing. |
| Transmission cover | 106 in-lb | The cover closes the back of the pan. |
| Supplied drain plug | 18 ft-lb | The plug in this kit. |
| Supplied filter adapter | 40 ft-lb | The adapter in this kit. |
| Filter | ACDelco PF64 | LT filter thread and bypass. |
| Tube bracket | 88 in-lb | Holds the dipstick tube. |
| Sealant | Gray RTV GM 12378521. No gasket 12612350. | The LT rail seals on RTV, located by two dowels. |
| Truck spacer | About 2 mm thick, on the bolt between the covers and the pan. Not included. | Some truck covers sit proud of the pan rail. |
302-24 and 302-24BK use the same pickup, tray, pan-bolt, bellhousing, transmission-cover, tube-bracket, PF64, and RTV lines as the 302-20 group. No drain-plug torque, filter-adapter torque, or 2 mm spacer is printed for 302-24. The 302-35 rock shield bolts on this pan are 18 ft-lb.
Holley 302-1
302-1 is the wide rear-sump cast pan for GM rear-wheel-drive cars and trucks that originally had a small-block or big-block with a traditional rear-sump pan. It is the pan to measure first when the crossmember is under the front of the engine. On a G-body, use the 302-2. The engine may still need to move up, down, forward, or back for the crossmember or the steering.
| Part | What this pan needs | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Pickup | Included. No separate pickup number. Supplied O-ring. Push the tube all the way into the pump before you tighten the bolt. Torque is in the list above. | The bolt must not drag the tube in. That cuts the O-ring. |
| Windage tray | Not included. A full-length GM tray may need a clearance cut so the pickup sits flush. GM 12611129 is the deflector with room for the pickup bracket. | The pickup bracket hits a deflector that was not cut for it. |
| Dipstick | Block hole, not a hole in the pan. Holley 302-15 kit, or LS3 stick GM 12669528 and tube GM 12625031. | The stick has to read this sump. |
| Filter and gasket | Same filter, adapter, and gasket as the LS list above. Neither the gasket nor the filter is in the box. | The filter stays on the pan. The gasket is what the bolts clamp. |
| Oil level sensor | Leave it off. Unplug it if the old pan had one. | This pan does not use that sensor. |
| Drain plug | Included. Same 18 ft-lb as the LS list, after the thread insert checks out. | A missing insert strips the aluminum. |
| Stroke and oil | 4.25 in maximum stroke. Not for an engine that originally used a dry sump. 5.5 qt in the sump, 6 qt with a stock filter. | A longer stroke hits the pan. A dry-sump engine is outside this pan. The extra half quart is the filter. |
| In the box | Sump baffle, pickup, drain plug, oil filter stud, oil passage cover. | You still buy the gasket, the tray, the filter, and the dipstick. |
Pans labeled WB11008 are the same wide-chassis shape. That older label pairs dipstick GM 12634547 with tube GM 12625031. The 302-1 pairs 12669528 with 12625031. Use the dipstick number on the paper that matches the pan in your hands.
Holley 302-2
302-2 is the extra-front-clearance pan. It fits where a 1998-2002 F-body pan fits: 1967-69 Camaro and Firebird, 1968-74 Nova, Apollo, Ventura, and Omega, 1982-92 F-body, 1978-87 G-body, and 1964-72 A-body. The front half of the sump is patterned on the 1998-2002 LS1 pan, which is why the crank clearance is tighter than the 302-1.
| Part | What this pan needs | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Pickup | Included, two-bolt flange. Two M6 x 16 mm screws come in the kit. One screw holds the screen. The second is optional. Supplied O-ring. Torque is the same as the 302-1. | The screen has to seal in the pump and sit on the stud without hitting the tray. |
| Windage tray | Not included. GM F-body tray 12558253, cut for the pickup. A full-length tray works if you remove the front quarter and make that same cut. The pickup bracket has to sit down on the stud and the tray. | An uncut F-body tray hits the pickup bracket. |
| Dipstick, filter, gasket, drain plug | Same as the 302-1. | Same block hole, same LS filter mount, same one-piece gasket. |
| Oil level sensor | Leave it off. | This pan does not use it. |
| Stroke and oil | 3.62 in maximum. It will not take an LS7 crank. Not for an engine that originally used a dry sump. 5.7 qt in the sump, 6.2 qt with a stock filter. | The front half is the shallow F-body shape. A dry-sump engine is outside this pan even when the stroke is 3.62 in or less. |
| Clearance inside | 0.378 in from the pickup to the pan floor, 0.136 in from the tube to the side of the pan. | The screen has almost no room to sit crooked. |
| In the box | Baffle, OE-style pickup, drain plug, filter stud, oil passage cover. | Gasket, F-body tray, filter, and dipstick are separate. |
The two extra pan bolts, GM 12554990, are in the LS torque list. The 302-1 and 302-2 do not use them.
Pans labeled WB11009 follow this 302-2 shape, including the 3.62 in stroke and tray 12558253. That older label pairs dipstick 12634547 with tube 12625031. Use the number on the paper that matches that pan.
Holley 302-3, 302-3BK, and 302-5
302-3 and black 302-3BK are the most front clearance of the LS cast pans. 302-5 is that same pan with the turbo drain-back holes and plugs left off, for a naturally aspirated engine. Use 302-3 or 302-3BK when you need the drain-back ports.
They fit 1967-69 F-body, 1982-92 F-body, 1968-74 X-body, 1964-72 A-body, 1978-88 A/G-body, 1979-2004 Mustang, and 1979-86 Mercury Capri, plus other cars that need more room around the front half of the pan. The 302-3 also clears a Fox-body factory K-member and a Fox-body rack.
| Part | What these pans need | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Pickup | Same as the 302-2: included, O-ring, two M6 x 16 mm screws. Push the tube fully into the pump first. | Same seal and the same reason as the 302-2. |
| Windage tray | Not included. Cut GM F-body tray 12558253 for the pickup and for the pan, or shorten a full-length tray and cut it for the pickup. | The pickup and the reshaped sump both hit an uncut tray. |
| Dipstick, filter, gasket, drain plug | Same as the 302-1. The filter mount is the stock LS location, and the pan also has a cooler-port provision. | The filter stays on the pan. |
| Oil returns | 302-3 and 302-3BK: two 1/2 in NPT ports, one on each side, for a turbo oil return. 302-5 leaves those holes and plugs off. No plug part number is printed for the 302-3 ports. | A turbo needs a low return into the sump. An open port leaks. |
| Cooler port | Earls LS0012ERL and LS0013ERL are oil-cooler adapters. Earls LS0020ERL is the oil-cooler block-off. Its 1/8 in NPT port is for an oil-pressure gauge or a turbo oil supply. | That port is the cooler passage, not the sump return. |
| Extra bolts | Two oil-pan bolts, GM 12554990. They are not in the box. See the LS torque list. | The kit is short two pan bolts. No hole location is printed with that part number. |
| Oil level sensor | Leave it off. | These pans do not use it. |
| Stroke and oil | 4.00 in maximum. Not an LS7 crank, and not a dry-sump engine. 5.6 qt in the sump, 6.1 qt with a stock filter. | The sump is opened up for chassis clearance and still clears a 4.00 in stroke. |
| In the box | Baffle, OE-style pickup, drain plug, filter stud, oil passage cover. | Gasket, two bolts, tray, filter, and dipstick are separate. |
Baffle bolts are the four supplied 1/4-20 x 1/2 in screws, with thread locker, at 8-10 ft-lb. The oil-passage cover just above the filter uses its gasket and M6 x 1.0 x 30 mm bolts at 106 in-lb.
Holley 302-4 and 302-4BK
302-4 and black 302-4BK are the LS off-road pans for a 1973-87 GM K10, stock height or lifted. They clear SM465, NV4500, TH350, TH400, 700R4, 4L60, 4L70, 4L80, 6L80, and 6L90.
Shared with the 302-3: the pickup, the gasket, the filter, the two bolts GM 12554990, a 4.00 in stroke limit, and a capacity of 5.6 qt in the sump and 6.1 qt with a stock filter. Not a dry-sump engine and not an LS7 crank.
The hinge-door baffle is 302-33. It bolts into 302-4 and 302-4BK in place of the standard baffle, so leave the standard baffle out. The four supplied 1/4-20 x 1/2 in bolts get thread locker and 10 ft-lb. Premium pans 302-6 and 302-6BK include 302-33. The 302-35 rock shield fits 302-4 and 302-4BK (and the LT off-road pans below). Its bolts are 18 ft-lb. The shield is there because a K10 sump is the low point on the trail.
Holley LT pans (302-20 and 302-24)
These are Gen V LT pans. They are not the LS pans above. The pickup seals with a gasket and a pump seal, the windage tray is in the box, and the pan seals with RTV on two dowel pins instead of gasket 12612350.
302-20, black 302-20BK, and 302-21 are the car pans. They fit 1967-69 Camaro and Firebird and 1968-74 Nova, Apollo, Omega, and Ventura. The 302-20 also covers other muscle, classic, and truck chassis that need room at the front half of the pan: 1967-92 Camaro and Firebird, 1978-87 G-body, 1964-72 A-body, and 1973-87 Chevy and GMC full-size trucks, anywhere an F-body pan fits. 302-21 shares the 1967-69 and 1968-74 fit.
302-24 and black 302-24BK are the LT off-road pans for a 1973-87 K10, stock or lifted, with the same transmission list as the 302-4.
| Part | 302-20, 302-20BK, 302-21 | 302-24 and 302-24BK | Why |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pickup | Included, with a gasket and two M6 x 16 bolts at 10 ft-lb. Lift the tube while the bolts are still loose so the inlet clears the floor. Service gasket 108-210 is discontinued. | Same bolts and the same lift. Replace the pickup gasket with 108-210 when you service it. That gasket is discontinued. The current listing names 302-20, 302-20BK, 302-21, and 302-22. It does not name 302-24. | The inlet has to clear the floor, and the gasket is what seals the pump. A discontinued gasket that the listing does not name for this pan is the wrong one to count on. |
| Pump seal | Supplied seal. Install it in the orientation shown. | Same seal. Replace it with GM 12622368 if it is damaged. Orientation matters. | A backward seal leaks at the pump. |
| Filter-passage seals | Two seals are supplied. | Replace them with GM 12621086 if they are missing. | Those seals are the joints in the cast passage to the filter. |
| Windage tray | Included. Seven M6 x 12 bolts plus one M6 x 16 through the pickup bracket, all at 10 ft-lb, with thread locker. | Same hardware, included. | The long bolt also clamps the pickup bracket. |
| Baffle | Included. Optional road-race baffle 302-30. | Included. Leave the standard baffle out when you install 302-34. | The hinge baffle replaces the standard one. It does not stack on top of it. |
| Dipstick | LT stick and tube. The numbers disagree. See below. Bracket bolt 88 in-lb. Replace the tube O-ring if the tube is not new. | Same conflict, same bracket bolt. | An LS3 stick does not read an LT sump the same way. |
| Filter | ACDelco PF64. Supplied adapter at 40 ft-lb. See the torque list. | PF64. No adapter torque is printed for 302-24. | LT filter thread and bypass. |
| Sealant | Gray RTV GM 12378521. No 12612350 gasket. Pan locates on two dowel pins. | Same RTV and the same dowels. | The LT rail seals on RTV, located by the dowels. |
| Oil return | 302-20 has a 1/2 in NPT port. If you do not use it, install the supplied plug with Loctite 567, finger tight, then 2 to 3 rounds. | Brush the cast oil passage until it is clear. A blockage drops oil pressure. | An open return leaks. A blocked passage starves the engine. |
| Sensor | Oil level sensor is not used. There is no boss for a factory LT1 oil-temperature sensor. Moving that sensor means machining. | Level sensor is not used. | The level sensor stays off. The 302-20 has no boss for an LT1 oil-temperature sensor. |
| Drain plug | Included. 18 ft-lb. See the torque list. | No drain-plug torque is printed for 302-24. | The 302-20 figure is for the plug in that kit. |
| Stroke and oil | Up to 4.0 in. Not a dry-sump engine. 5.6 qt in the sump, 6.1 qt with a stock filter. | Same stroke and the same capacity. | The sump is sized for that stroke and that fill. |
| Shield | 302-35 rock shield also fits these two, bolts at 18 ft-lb. | The K10 sump is what hits the rocks. | |
| Truck spacer | A truck engine may need a spacer about 2 mm thick on the bolt between the covers and the pan. The spacer is not included. | No spacer note for 302-24. | Some truck covers sit proud of the 302-20 rail. |
Unconfirmed LT dipstick pair: the papers for the 302-20, 302-20BK, 302-21, 302-24, and 302-24BK print dipstick GM 12658475 and tube GM 12661062, and the 302-20 listing prints dipstick GM 12661062 and tube GM 12678823 (Unconfirmed). Match the paper that shipped with the pan.
Pan-bolt, bellhousing, and transmission-cover torque for these LT pans is in Holley cast-pan torque. More: oil pan torque.
GM F-body pan 12628771
The 1998-2002 Camaro and Firebird pan, GM 12628771, is the rear-sump pan the 302-2 clearance is patterned on. It is 5.62 in deep with an 11.71 in deep section. Use the pickup, dipstick, tube, and O-ring that came with that pan. A truck pickup is shaped for a deeper sump and will hit this floor or stand too high. The windage tray is GM 12558253. The 302-2, 302-3, and 302-4 use that same tray and cut it for their pickup. Pickup 12558251, dipstick 12551581, tube 12551577, O-ring 12557752, and gasket 12612350 are Unconfirmed. A drain-plug number for this pan is Unconfirmed, so it is not printed.
GM truck and SUV pans
The truck and SUV pan in the compare table is GM 12640746. It is the deep pan that clears a 4x4 crossmember and then hangs below the frame, which is why a lowered truck usually wants a shallower pan. The SSR and TrailBlazer SS pan GM 12579203 is the other truck-family casting in the table. Use the pickup, tray, dipstick, tube, and O-ring from that same pan. A car pickup will not reach the bottom of a truck sump. Accessory part numbers for these pans are Unconfirmed, so they are not printed. An oil-pressure bypass for an AFM or DOD truck pan is Unconfirmed, so it is not part of this list.
Corvette C6 pan 12624617
GM 12624617 is the C6 wet-sump pan (LS2 and LS3, the cars that did not use a dry sump). It is the shallowest wet-sump pan in the table at 4.85 in, and its deep section is the longest at 13.57 in, so measure the whole length. The pickup, tray, dipstick, and O-ring have to be the Corvette parts that came with it. A shallow sump with a deep-pan pickup hits the floor. A separate C5 pan number is Unconfirmed, so only 12624617 is listed. Gasket, sensor, and drain-plug numbers for this pan are Unconfirmed.
CTS-V pan 12631828
GM 12631828 is the 2009-2015 Cadillac CTS-V pan. Listed maximum depth is 7.74 in. The gasket or seal and the drain plug are included. The pan has an oil-level sensor port. A plug or sensor part number for that port is Unconfirmed, so do not leave the port open. The pickup and the windage tray are not included, and the pan has no dipstick port. Pickup, tray, dipstick, and tube numbers for this pan are Unconfirmed. A 2004-2007 CTS-V pan number is Unconfirmed, so none is printed.
2010-2015 Camaro pan 12640748
GM 12640748 (2010-2015 Camaro, and the G8 and Caprice pans in that family) belongs in its original car, a tube chassis, a sand rail, or a boat. Leave it off a classic car or truck swap. Crate engines often ship with it anyway. If you already have one, the pickup, tray, dipstick, and O-ring still have to be the ones for that pan. Those accessory numbers are Unconfirmed.
GTO and VZ front sump 12599397
GM 12599397 is the 2005-and-later GTO and VZ Commodore front-sump pan, 6.30 in deep. GM 12581209 is the earlier pan, through 2004. The sump is in front because the obstruction on those cars is under the back of the engine. The factory pickup for this pan is no longer available, so skip a used pan with a broken tube. Canton pickup 15-277 is the pickup for Canton's own pan 15-276, sold in place of discontinued GM pickup 12572654. That Canton pickup is not listed as a bolt-in for a factory GTO pan. Gasket and dipstick numbers for 12599397 are Unconfirmed.
Chevrolet Performance muscle car kit 19212593
19212593 is the Chevrolet Performance muscle car oil pan kit for 1955-1995 GM front-engine, rear-wheel-drive V8 cars. An LC9 crate engine in an older vehicle may need this kit when the truck pan hangs too low. The kit includes the oil pan, dipstick and tube, gaskets, pickup tube, windage tray, and mounting hardware. An oil filter is not in that list. Which filter matches the kit is Unconfirmed. Pan capacity is 5 qt. A fill that adds the filter is not printed. Wet sump. Maximum stroke is 3.620 with the windage tray. No unit is printed with that figure. Inches is the reading that matches an LS stroke. A loose truck pickup will not match this sump. The bare-pan number is Unconfirmed, so it is not printed.
LH8 Hummer H3 pan 12614821
The Hummer H3 / LH8 pan in the compare table is GM 12614821. It is a different part number from kit 19212593. Order the kit when you want the muscle-car package. Order 12614821 only when you want that bare pan. The pickup, tray, dipstick, and O-ring have to be the ones that belong to the pan you bought. Hardware numbers paired with 12614821 are Unconfirmed, so they are not printed.

Where a pan lists gasket 93152, that is the one-piece gasket, and it does not cover an LS7 or an LS9.
- 20139, steel, 7 qt, 6 in deep. 1998-2002 Camaro and Firebird with an LS, and 1993-2002 F-body LS swaps. Clears a 4.25 in stroke with most steel rods. Trap door and a rear anti-climb baffle. Includes a billet 22 mm spin-on filter mount with a 1/4 in NPT sensor port, so the filter stays on the pan and you have a port for a pressure or temperature sender. Uses an LS car dipstick. Pickup 24050 is the recommended pickup, sold separately. Windage trays 22941 (GM studs) and 22943 (ARP studs) are the optional trays.

Trays 22941 (GM studs) and 22943 (ARP studs). Stud kit 38541. Gasket 93152. O-ring pack 97315.
- 20141, steel, 7 qt, 6 in angled sump. 1967-92 Camaro, 1968-78 Nova, 1965-72 Chevelle, 1953-96 Corvette, 1978-88 G-body, and two-wheel-drive S10 and S15. The sump is angled for that longer chassis list. Check the dimensions. Clears a 4.25 in stroke with most steel rods. Trap door, rear anti-climb baffle, and -10 AN remote-filter fittings. Uses an LS car dipstick. Pickup 24050, trays 22941 (GM studs) and 22943 (ARP studs), stud kit 38541, gasket 93152, and O-ring pack 97315 are the listed hardware.
- 20142 and 20148, steel, 7 qt, 6 in deep. 1967-2015 Camaro and Firebird, 1968-72 Nova, 1965-72 Chevelle, 1953-96 Corvette, 1978-88 G-body, and two-wheel-drive S10 and S15. Check the dimensions. Clears a 4.25 in stroke with most steel rods. Four trap doors and an anti-slosh tray. 20142 has a billet 22 mm spin-on mount with a 1/4 in NPT sensor port, so the filter stays on the pan. 20148 has a billet -10 AN adapter for a remote filter when that spin-on hits the chassis. Uses an LS car dipstick. Pickup 24050. Trays 22941 and 22943. Stud kit 38541. Gasket 93152. O-ring pack 97315.
- 20111, cast aluminum, 5.75 in deep, 6 qt, Chevy orange. Gen III and Gen IV, rear-sump car and truck swaps. Check the dimensions. Clears a 4.25 in stroke with most steel rods. The kit includes the anti-slosh baffle, the pickup, the sealing gaskets and O-rings, and the mounting hardware, so you are not matching a loose GM tube to this sump. Integral 22 mm spin-on mount with a cooler port. Filter 22463, or an OEM equivalent, is separate. Uses an LS car dipstick. The same parts list names 20105 as the other cast pan and 20107 as the cast pan with a heavy-duty pickup. Depth and capacity for 20105 and 20107 are not printed on the 20111 listing.
- 21172, aluminum, 6 qt, 4-7/8 in deep. Miata LS swaps and the C6 Corvette, and other cars with little ground clearance. Check the dimensions. Four trap doors and an anti-slosh baffle. The 22 mm spin-on mount is on the pan. Filter 22463 is sold separately. Pickup 24172 is sold separately and fits the same pumps as 24050. Gasket 93152. Stud kit 38542, because this pan has an aluminum rail. O-ring pack 97315 and pickup bolt 38151 are the service parts for the tube. This pan is the shallow one, so the sump is not the low point on a Miata or a C6.
- 20131, aluminum, 8-1/4 in deep, 12 qt plus the filter. GM LS Gen III and Gen IV, and Dart LS Next Gen 3. Sand rails with a rear-facing, rear-mounted engine, and marine use. Check the dimensions. That depth makes the pan the low point on a street car, so leave it off a lowered car. Clears a 4.125 in stroke with most steel rods. Four trap doors plus two rear trap doors, anti-climb baffles, and a removable louvered windage tray. Includes a billet 22 mm spin-on mount with a 1/4 in NPT port. Filter 22463 is separate. Pickup 24131 is for a GM LS block in this pan. Pickup 24132 is for a Dart LS Next block in this pan. The two tubes are not interchangeable. Each one is built for that block. Dipstick provision is 1/4 in NPT. Dipstick 25973 is the twist-lock kit. Stud kit 38541. Gasket 93152.
- 27470, steel high-clearance kit, 6 in deep, 4 qt plus the filter. 1964-72 A-body, 1968-74 X-body, 1967-69 F-body, 1977-95 G10, G20, and G30 vans, 1971-77 Vega, 1970-72 Monte Carlo, and 1955-57. Check the dimensions. The small sump and the beveled edges are there so the pan clears those tight crossmembers. Clears a 4.25 in stroke with most steel rods. Removable anti-slosh baffle. Includes the pickup, the pan stud kit, and the gasket. Includes a billet 22 mm spin-on mount with a 1/4 in NPT port, set inboard so it clears block-hugger headers. Filter 22463 is separate. Uses an LS car dipstick. Optional trays 22941 and 22943. Magnetic drain plug 97006 is -8 AN.
Moroso's front-sump swap pan for the BRZ, 86, FR-S, and 240SX S14 is the other front-sump option in the compare table. Match the pickup and the remote filter that pan is sold with.
Canton. 15-276 and 15-274 use a stock gasket and OEM windage tray GM 12558189. That tray number is not the F-body tray 12558253 and not the full-length deflector 12611129. These two pans do not fit an LS Next 2 block.
- 15-276, front sump, 5-5/8 in deep, for LS1 and LS6 cars that need a shallow front sump. Pickup is Canton 15-277, sold separately, with an O-ring in the 15-277 box. 6.5 qt system capacity, 4.25 in stroke clearance, diamond baffle with four trap doors, and a bolt-in slosh baffle. A 20 mm bung for a low-oil sensor. Plug it with Canton 22-405 if you do not run the sensor, or the bung leaks. Dipstick is a 1/4 in NPT bung on the pan (Canton 20-850 or braided 20-854). Magnetic drain plug. Filter adapters 22-630, 22-632, and 22-631, and remote mount 22-620, are the filter hardware for this pan.
- 15-274, rear sump, road race, LS1 and LS6. Fits A-body, F-body, Y-body, and 1970s X-body cars, and LS RX-7 swaps. Clears a 4.25 in stroke with steel rods. Requires Canton remote filter adapter 22-630 or 22-632, or filter mount 22-631, and pickup 15-275. The cast filter mount is not on this pan, which is why the adapter is required. 6.5 qt system capacity, diamond baffle with four trap doors, removable windage and slosh baffle, and a crank scraper. Stud kit 22-302 is the pan hardware sold with it.
- 15-277 replaces discontinued GM pickup 12572654 as the pickup for the 15-276 only.
- 13-274, steel drag-race T-sump for LS1 and LS6 blocks in earlier cars. Fits A-body, F-body, Y-body, and 1970s X-body. Sump is 6-1/2 in deep, 9 in long, and 11-3/4 in wide, for a 6-1/2 qt system. Clears a 4.125 in stroke. Trap-door baffle. Windage tray is GM 12558253. There is no cast filter mount, so it needs remote adapter 22-630 or 22-632, or filter mount 22-631, plus pickup 13-275. Stock gasket. Stud kit 22-302. Works with a stock starter. It will not fit an LS Next 2 block. The same family lists black 13-274BLK and aluminum 13-274A. Pickup 13-275 covers 13-274 and 13-274A.
- 16-278, steel, for an LS in an S10, S15, or Blazer 4x4. The sump is 8 in deep for a 7 qt system, because the front differential sits under the engine. Clears a 4.25 in stroke. 14 gauge, black. Pickup is 16-279. It needs remote adapter 22-630 or 22-632, or filter mount 22-631. A 4x4 uses 22-630. Pan-mounted dipstick provision. Dipsticks 20-850 (steel tube) and 20-854 (braided) fit that bung. Stud kit 22-302. The windage tray number disagrees: one listing prints GM 12558253 and an older parts list prints GM 12558189 (Unconfirmed). Use the tray the pan you bought was built for.
Milodon. The pickup, tray, gasket, bolts, and dipstick are required parts, not parts in the pan box. Dipstick 22006 needs tube headers. It will not fit stock cast-iron manifolds, because the tube runs where those manifolds sit. Stroke clearance on the pans that give a number is 4.060 in. Gasket 41012, windage tray 32150, and pan bolts 85002 are Milodon numbers, not GM numbers.
- 30915: 7 qt plus the filter. Sump 9 in long, 11 in wide, 6 in deep, front section 1-3/4 in deep. All chassis except 1962-67 Nova and 1955-57 Chevy. Pickup 18290. Filter on the block with boss 21580, or remote boss 21576, or remote kit 21575. The on-block filter sits above the bottom of the pan so it is not the low point.
- 30916: the 1955-57 pan in that same family, with pickup 18290 and the same filter, tray, gasket, bolts, and dipstick.
- 30914: 7 qt plus the filter, 6 in deep, all LS Chevy series. -10 AN tubes welded to the pan rail, so remote kit 21575 is the filter. Pickup 18290, tray 32150, dipstick 22006. If oil pressure over 80 psi is common, use the 30915 with its heavy duty billet filling plate. That plate is rated to 95 psi.
- 31507: pro-touring and drift, 6 qt plus the filter. Sump 9 in long, 12 in wide, 5-1/2 in deep. Most GM chassis, including Corvette. Pickup 18292. Filter boss 21580, remote boss 21576, or kit 21575. Trap doors. Tray 32150, gasket 41012, bolts 85002, dipstick 22006.
- 31410 (internal pickup) and 31415 (external -16 AN pickup): tube-chassis and turbo pans, 8 qt, 5-1/2 in deep at the rear and 4-1/2 in deep at the front, for cars that are open under the engine. Pickup 18292. Filter on the block or remote. They are listed for larger strokes, with no maximum inch printed.
- 31063: 1962-67 Nova. Will not work with the stock power steering. 6 qt plus the filter. Sump 8-1/2 in long, 8-1/4 in wide, 7-1/2 in deep. Pickup 18291 for a stock LS pump. Remote kit 21575 is required. Tray 32150, bolts 85002, dipstick 22006.
- 31083: S10, Blazer, and pickup. 5 qt plus the filter. Sump 7 in long, 8-1/4 in wide, 7-1/2 in deep. Pickup 18291. Remote kit 21575 is required. Tray 32150, bolts 85002, dipstick 22006.
Champ. Aluminum wet-sump pans. The pickup and the filter adapter are sold separately, because the adapter is the piece that gives you a filter mount.
- LS3000: road race, street, or strip, for Camaro, Chevelle, and Nova swaps with a stock crossmember or rear-steer linkage. Four trap doors, removable louvered tray, billet rails. 5-1/2 qt with the filter. 9-1/4 in long, 11-1/4 in wide, 5-1/2 in high. Stock starter. Pickup 750LS1 (7/8 in, 5-1/2 in deep, for Melling 10295 and 10355). Filter adapter LS1001, cross-drilled LS1001-1, crossover plate LS1001-2, or remote block LS1001-3 with -10 AN fittings. Tray LS-1.
- LS3060: same construction for vehicles where the crossmember is not in the way. 10 qt with the filter. 16 in long, 11-1/4 in wide, 5-1/2 in high. The dipstick is a 1998-2002 F-body Camaro stick, so the full mark matches this sump. Same pickup 750LS1 and the same adapters. Tray LS-2.
- LS3140: circle track, 10 qt without the filter, 20-1/2 x 11-1/2 x 4-1/2 in, seven trap doors, oil-level check plug, and a -10 female oil-return fitting. Pickup 700LS1, 4-1/2 in deep, for the same Melling pumps. Clears a starter.
- LS3141: circle track, 8 qt without the filter, 20-1/2 x 11-1/2 x 4 in, seven trap doors, oil-level plug, and an oil-temp fitting. Pickup 706LS1, 4 in deep.
Sikky. The front-sump pan SKU OP001 holds 6.8 qt in the sump, not counting the filter or a filter relocation. It is 5 in from the block to the bottom of the sump. Pickup PT1 is required and is not in the base box. Dipstick DS01A is required. The stick mounts in a bung on the pan. While the pan is off, tap the stock block dipstick hole to 1/8 in NPT, thoroughly remove the machining debris, then seal and install the supplied plug. That plug closes the block hole. It is not the bung on the pan. Select a pan-mounted adapter, bottom-port OPB-01 or side-port OPB-02. That adapter is what connects the pan to a filter. The remote filter base, braided lines, filter, and JIC fittings are a separate relocation kit. The kit does not include OPB-01 or OPB-02, so it is not a substitute adapter. A third pan-mounted adapter style is Unconfirmed. A steel or cast pan's filter mount is not on this pan. Route the lines away from the headers, because heat can damage the line coating and they leak. OUT on the pan goes to IN on the filter block, and OUT on the filter block goes to IN on the pan. Reversed lines give no oil pressure. The pan kit includes a magnetic drain plug, NPT plugs for the 1/2 in NPT turbo-drain bungs and the 1/8 in NPT temperature bung, and a hardware kit that still uses some factory bolts. Buy gasket G01, the OEM oil pan gasket sold with the pan.
Pan-to-front-cover bolts and the block bolts are 18 ft-lb (25 Nm). Pan-to-rear-cover bolts are 12 Nm (9 ft-lb). Tighten the bellhousing bolts. The drain plug is snug. Do not over-tighten it. No bellhousing torque and no drain-plug torque are printed for this pan. Seal the front and rear corners. The install trims the factory baffle and uses the front-left windage-tray bolt to clamp the Sikky pickup. Keep at least 3/8 in between the pickup and the pan floor. Aftermarket pumps may need more tray and baffle clearance. Chassis-specific Sikky pans in the compare table (E36, E46, E39, Supra) are different sumps. Do not put the OP001 pickup on one of those.
Hamburger's Performance, ICT Billet, Speedway, Dirty Dingo. Hamburger's Performance sells steel LS swap pans for classic cars and S10s. Pickup numbers, capacities, and the filter layout on those pans are Unconfirmed, so they are not printed. ICT Billet and Speedway sell LS pans, including Holley pans. No ICT or Speedway pan of their own is listed here. No Dirty Dingo oil-pan spacer is listed. Order the pickup, gasket, and filter that belong to the exact pan you bought.
