Up to a point I guess, you still need the an fittings,lines and oil filter adapter. By the time you buy those you might as well carve up a gm pan.

Renz,
who is that person you are talking about does he/she have a number. I am currently looking at the RPM oil pan and the solid engine mounts. I just ordered the headers thru Sandersons. The price for the RPM oil pan w/pick up is 595.00 and another 165.00 for engine mounts. According to Sanderson, I need the solid mounts because of the header wraps around the steering shaft.
-Does anyone know where I can purchase a transmission support brace for a 4l60e trans?

I think you seriously need to rethink your entire plan (and maybe your life) if you really just asked this question.

Re: v8 swap anyone?
I guess he is doing some extra research. I often find myself wondering why people get into a project like this because 6 months from now it will be a roller for sale as they ran out of money or just got in to deep.

Pretty much. I feel like I can tell who's going to finish something as soon as the first questions start getting asked.
I'm batting about .800.

Re: v8 swap anyone?
Norm,
I looked into several places that have made their own, but they were one off. I called RPM, orderd the pan (2 to 3 wks back order).
I asked about the Midlen guy (alot of BS, but no info one him/first time hearing about GM). If either of these members are selling pans, can someone post some info, where I can order a pan?
Harness is a spintech ( thinks their name) another member recommended them. 5 wks to make the harness, but its plug and play

don't even know why i'm bothering at this point.....but have you read your own thread?

it's not plug and play if your adding turbo(s)...you'll need to add a return line bung on the pan, unless you plan on tying into the oil system by some other means.

Your best bet is to search the hell out of LS1tech, or read every thread in the conversion/hybrid section.

Re: v8 swap anyone?
I would buy a Hummer H3 pan like what I did, get it welded ( modded) to fit. I think there was a member here, maybe check group purchases and see that was selling them. personally I wouldn't go with the Milodon as you need to buy the fitting etc and that's just more crap to leak or cause problems.

Re: v8 swap anyone?
you'd rather mod the h3 pan and add an oil bung....than just add an oil bung to the milodon?

Re: v8 swap anyone?
I'm n/a. Forgot he's going turbo. But yeah,welding new aluminum is easy as writing your name with a crayon. I love welding aluminum and stainless. Steel is kind of boring.
Also forgot about the link to the hummer pan mod:
