For those who say it Can't Be Done.....

[S.J.SLEEPER]

Oil pump removed from Ls1 in a Fbody without removing oil pan or dropping pan down
Yes..........I have some tricks up my sleeve!!! :mrgreen:

[MyFirstZ]

I would have believed you since that's what I did......

Slowly but surely and scissor fingers lol

[S.J.SLEEPER]

Rag to keep it from fallin in pan
Loosen it with 10mm S-wrench
Fingers like sausages.... :banghead:
so skinny angle needle nose pliers to take it out the last couple threads.

I don't see the sawzall in the pic?

[LTb1ow]

Took engine out the bottom though, so any time saved was taken up by that, shoulda gone out the top!

[KirkEvil]

this is madness

[S.J.SLEEPER]

Fully welded header/y/cats and they needed to be re-coated. So out the bottom was defintly the easier route.

No sawzall needed

Oil pump out in 5min.. vrs. taking oil pan off, cleaning it & new gasket n such.

Wish I was working on a Lt1......:bertstare:

[LS1ow]

bet i can get it out faster using a demo saw.

[Jersey Mike]

Good, you can do mine in a few months! :lol:

[The_Bishop]

With a demo saw? I'd like to see the re-installation.

With a demo saw & jb weld? :mrgreen: lol

Done it before plenty of times, theres alot of people out there that say it can't be done. It can, just need the right tools and some patience.

[1984camaroz28]

10mm with a slight bend... and some skill

[Raist103]

getting it back in is the tricky part
