Anyone know of a fabricator who is building custom pans for the LS7 dry sump? Lots of fabricators for the LS1/2/3/6 but nobody seems willing to fabricate for the LS7. Maybe they don't understand the oiling system? , Last time I checked 6 months ago, Stef's, Canton, Moroso and Kevko didn't seem interested.

BTW, the ARE pan is nice, but won't work for my application.

TIA.

As a follow up, I've been working with Doug over at ProPan on the LS7 pan project. He's a great guy to deal with, and has put together a prototype pan for evaluation. The final pan will be done pretty soon, and for folks putting a LS7 into a mid engine car w/ a Porsche gearbox (GTM, RCR etc), I think this will be a really nice piece.

Thanks for turning me onto ProPan.

I worked with him on a prototype for a GM A body after I bought a Canton and sent it back. Tell him the guy that has his first LS pan (also Tom from NY) says hi.
