I havent decided for sure what im gonna do yet. Its probably either gonna be a stock LS2 or try to find an LS6. Wish i had the funds to put some real power in the car but dont quite have the budget for that right now. Big power is really all the car is lacking to run with the top guys on the road course...but for now im just gonna do what i can with what i have and get the thing back together and running.

thanks
kevin miller

You can't go wrong with an ls6 or ls2.

You really need to buy a good oil pan that is baffled better than the stock pans or you're going to kill the next engine on road the course.

LS6 is the better choice as far as oil control / drain back for track events. I'm using an autokraft pan on my car and it works great.

AutoKraft is the same as Canton. The new Mast one has good baffling although I don't know that it's superior to the Canton one. One to avoid is the new holley as it has zero baffling.

I believe Rupp is installing a new AutoKraft oil pan in Bad Penny, if you have any doubts that it won't hold up for track use!
