Installing the Holley 302-3 / 302-5 Oil Pan on a Chevy LS Engine

The Holley LS Retro-fit Oil Pan is just what I needed to gain more clearance for my LS Swap. See what you must do to make it work in this video. Includes trimming the windage tray, installing the new oil pickup tube, and attaching the pan to the block making sure it is lined up properly.

Thanks for the video update Dick. Cool oil pan 👍🏻 question, are you doing body work on the Vette?

[@DickShaw]

Yes I am. I have some fiberglass repairs to make and will be removing all of the old paint in preparation for fresh primer/paint. Thanks for following along.

Do you know where and how the dipstick fits with this set up ? i bought the same pan , my old pan had a whole for the dipstick .. really confused . thanks

Hi, Thanks for watching. On my engine (1998 LS-1) on the passengers side 7" forward of the rear of the block and 1" above the oil pan there is a hole for the dipstick. If yours was in the pan then this hole may have a plug in it that you must knock out. The dipstick tube I used was the one I had and I had to modify it to work with the exhaust manifolds I am using. Anytime you're adapting a different engine into an older car there will always be surprises to deal with. I guess that is what makes it fun.....I think :).
