RetroLSx Pan: 5.5" deep sump with a 5qt capacity. This pan comes with a new custom pick up tube and a baffling plate (not shown) that controls oil in the pan. The stock LH8 windage tray is to be used with this unit but is not included. It uses a stock GM filter. This pan has the same thick 3/8 flange that’s on GM units for a pan that will add block rigidity unlike stamped swap pans. In comparison, the LH8 pan has a sump that is 7.5" deep.

I have the #12599805 and it's not in this list or the one that was previously mentioned. I believe it is 2007 and up oem truck applications.

GMPP oil pan

What about the GM PERFORMANCE PARTS pan? Part number 19212593? Seems like a good option for everyone here doing a conversion? It's designed by GM for the old RWD muscle cars and much more affordable then any of the Holley autokraft and such. It's even cheaper than most used F-body pans. And it includes pickup, windage tray, bolts and dipstick from pace performance for only $150 plus shipping? Jegs offers for 145 but you don't get a pickup with it. Has anyone had any experience with this pan?

I was looking into this pan set up as well for my LS swap. Anyone have any experience with this part number???

With the got pan, do you know if it will work in a stock 63 front clip with factory power steering an the cop mini sub frame? Thanks guys. I've tried searching but came up empty handing with finding anyone doing the sway with the factory ps. That or I'm just blind an didn't see anything :D

I have a 62 Nova hardtop and will be doing a LS swap. I just bought the short block. :) So I see that a concern is the oil pan. I am probably going to replace the stock suspension with a mustang II front. That being said, I see mention of GTO oil pan working. I found this on JEGs and wondered if any one with the 1st gens have used it. The price is about half of what I am seeing for the GTO pan.

That pan won't work with anything with rack & pinion steering in the front of the crossmember, in other words it won't work with 95% of the mustang II front clips. The only option for mustang II clips is either the 4th gen f-body Camaro/Trans-am oil pan or go with an aftermarket pan (which is lots of $$$$, like a few hundred more $$$$). Unless you're drag racing or going with autocross, the f-body pan is your best bet. And if you don't feel like waiting a long time to try and score a complete oil pan kit on craigslist (which is nearly impossible now) then you should just pony up and get a complete kit on ebay. And remember, the pan gaskets are about $30-$50 depending on where you go, so a pan on craigslist will need a new gasket.

Any way to break this down by generation?

Which pans best fit 1st gens, 2nd gens, 3rd gens, 4th gens, etc.

I'm getting ready to do a 5.3 swap into a 72, so I'm in the middle of researching these very types of things.

Great information here…
Banking it so I can use it as a reference for future LS swap…

Thanks for all of the input!

There's been no mention of the new Holley 302-2 oil pan on this thread yet, so I figured I'd post up basic info about it for those who wish to consider using it.

The design basically combines the front profile of the 4th-gen F-body pan and with the rear sump dimensions (it's actually 3/16" shorter at the bottom of the sump) of existing 302-1 Holley oil pan that has been on the market for the last couple of years. It is also the only other oil pan on the market, besides the existing Holley pan, that bolts to the transmission bellhousing to preserve the NVH properties designed into all stock GM LS oil pans.

You can use it in its as-received form in any installation that has previously required the use of a notched 4th-gen F-body pan. The advantage of using the it over a notched 4th-gen pan is that you don't suffer the diminished oil capacity penalty that you do with using the notched 4th-gen F-body pan; the Holley pan holds 5.2 quarts.

The pan was designed specifically for use with the new Hooker engine mounting brackets (not the old swap plates) and transmission crossmembers for 1st-gen F-body/ 3rd-gen Nova LS swaps, so you won't find a pan more directly suited to the design geometry of a 3rd-gen Nova...it clears the steering center link and inner tie rod ends by a mile without having to jam the engine completely up against the firewall as you have to when trying to use an un-notched stock 4th-gen F-body pan.

If anyone wants CAD dimensions of the pan, I can post them up next week if you feel it would be helpful info to add to this thread.

This is really helpful. I'm starting all the research/shopping for my LQ9/4L65e swap and it seems like most (almost all) of the swaps require either notching the frame or the oil pan. I don't want to do either.

New to the LS swap i've had my 69 nova for a while but recently decided to begin this project. I've got all my parts needed for the body restore now working on the engine i have a 6.0 ls. and trying to figure out which oil pan will work with my stock k-member at the stock ride height.

don't believe it....98-02 f body pan is the best....why buy something that is unproven in novas when something that has been proven many times over by nova owners....buy what fits:yes:

I thought it was the hummer pan. Still not as shallow as the f body pan.

I might be wrong but it thought the Holley muscle car pan is based on the hummer pan.

It's only 119$ buy it try it out give some feed back.

I know my car isn't that low and my f body pan might be 5-6" from the ground. That one might be 4. And worse if you like your car low.
