Scott, thank you for getting that back up. Those pictures are worth 1,000 words/answers.

Thanks again

Jason

Cool. A customer of mine had numerous LS7 swap questions. I will forward the link to him.

Is that oil tank same as ATS sells? Or is it longer ? I am asking it because Mark has notched the fender for it.

ATS is a dealer for Peterson. You can get Peterson dry sump tanks in 6", 7", or 9" diameters. You don't have a lot of room to get an 8 quart tank wedged in there. I had to do quite a bit of cutting. You'll definitely need a body saw.

Great! Because i want to drop it a little. It looks kind of cool when notched in to fender

It can't really be dropped a whole bunch or it will hit the lower valence/chin spoiler bracket. You also have to leave enough room to get the bumper bracket bolted on... and be very aware of where the tire is at full lock.
