oil pan options
As of now, I'm currently using a stock LS1 F-body pan in my truck. Although adequate for street use, it's not necessarily optimal for hard cornering in auto-x/road course use. Also, due to my plug wire configuration, I can't use my dipstick. I saw a pan used on an LSx build on Horsepower TV a few months ago where they used a pan with a clear tube between fittings to see the oil level. That would be great, but they never mentioned what brand/type the pan was on the parts list from the show.
I'm open to suggestions.Matt Kenner

If you can leave two black stripes from the exit of one corner to the braking zone of the next, you have enough horsepower. - Mark Donohue

Stick with the fbody oil pan, buy a baffle for it.improved racing.buy aftermarket dip stick.I'm running the autokraft oil pan with ls1 f body.I had the improved racing baffle on one of my ls1 oil pans and to be honest not much difference between both.
