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

Thanks again

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.

Thanks Scott! I take the lesson and try to fit everything first.

Glad it was useful info. I pretty much have my tank in and ready to go. I'll have to post a few pics.
