i think the truck pans work just fine if i remeber correctly from the research i was doing. but im sure some one who has done the swap can give u a solid answer

 

Well, you could always get the pan that's made for a 5.3L Colorado.

 

Well my 5.3 L33 Silvy motor, I will use the oil pan that came with it!

Which motor are you buying or planning on getting? That would be helpful to know!

 

Its an engine out of a silverado. I dunno what rpo code it is, dont really care the pans are pretty much the same for silverados.

 

My 6.0 pan hangs about two inches lower than my engine cradle. Would definitley have to swap it if I were lowered. I have seen conversion pans specific to LSX swaps in a colorado on ebay for about $200 that bring the pan higher.

 

dunno about the Colorado.. but for S10's the best pan to use is the H3 alpha pan..

Im would assume its the same as the 5.3 colorado pan tho

 

With a 5.3 out of a Silvy you should be fine!

 

I dunno, my 6.0 was a silverado pullout and the pan is huge

 

Well if memory serves me right, I know Joe's motor was out of a Silvy too; and I do not remember him saying a thing about replacing his. Hes also lowered some too.

 

:shrug: I just know that my pan is the lowest thing on my truck. Not a good thing IF i were lowered.

 

oh well. i guess if it sits too low i can cut it up.

 

ls2 Corvette pan is what I used.
