- I think that I am going to do is modify my stock truck pan to work with my Camaro swap. From my research it looks as if a modified stock truck pan will hold roughly 5 quarts, which is just shy of the stock LS1 pan which holds 5.5. I would much rather modify a truck pan at this point than spend the money to get the Holley pan.

Hi guys,
Some of you may remember seeing my 1976 Trans Am that I swapped in an LS1/6 speed combo in a few years ago. I have since sold the car and am moving on to another project. I am in search of a first gen Camaro, and I want to know what options are out there for using stock oil pans? I picked up a 6.0 LQ4 that I want to freshen up and do a very budget build for the car. I have driven many cars with BBC, SBC, SBF, and LS. If I am doing a rebuild on a first gen, I don't want to put anything but an LS motor in my car. They are so smooth and are very responsive to simple modifications.
I have searched for the past few days, but haven't had much success on this site and others. I know that the steering can be an issue, but are there any tried and true methods for installing an LS engine with any stock oil pan and using what engine mounts? I know that I am going to have to spend some money on parts, but I want to spend my money where it counts.
If there are any sites or builds that someone can point me to, I would greatly appreciate it.
Best,
Ryan
