Hi there,
I wasn’t sure where to post this but I thought this would be a good start.
I have an Ultima GTR which runs an LS7 with dry sump.
My oil filter is located on the oil pan still. The thread to which the filter screws on to is removable, i.e it has two different threads, one to mate to the oil pan and the other to take the Delco oil filter (the blue one).
I believe this to not be the norm so I thought I would confirm the pan identity.
I hope you can see the pic, I see the part number as 12596688. Well this doesn’t seem to be a GM part as all the GM pans seems to start 1256xxxx.
Does anyone have any suggestions to which direction I should look?
P.S - are their any LS experienced services in the Southeast? I’m based in Suffolk.
Many thanks
Greg
