LS7/LS9 oil tanks for a 69 Camaro - tips and advice needed
It's time for me to buy a tank for my project and also decide where to put it. I've searched and read several build threads here trying to soak up as much info as I can. I love the idea of keeping the oil tank in the passenger-side tulip panel but I'm hesitant to pull the trigger for fear of not being able to pull it off. (well, technically a local Dayton Ohio shop is working on this now) I've read I should have at least 10 qts capacity.
I'd love to hear others' experiences with this, opinions and things to plan for that maybe aren't obvious.
My biggest 3 concerns are:
1. How best to fill and check oil level for the *tulip panel* location
2. I see a lot of variety of single and many dual breather setups. I have no idea why you need 2, nor why their sizes seem to vary so much.
3. For the old battery location, I'm not sure if 10qts fits there. Also seeing caps and fittings in every damn direction. :-/
Some pics for interest and reference...funny, they're bigger here than on my own laptop screen. lol
