LS1 240Z Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 in the very side? the oil level warning sensor goes in there.. you should put it in there. dipstick on my camaro is on the passanger side. if you really want i suppose ic an take pics of my motor that is out.

zed240au Posted September 17, 2006 Author Share Posted September 17, 2006 yeah photo would be great have done searches for pic but can find one anywhere on net looking harder i think theres a blank in the block on the what youd call passenger side think theres an allen key in the hole will try tomorrow was thrown when dip stick didnt go into the oil pan like the gto Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LS1 240Z Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 #1 is the oil level sensor #2 is where the dipstick tube goes IN the block to the left and right you can see holes in the block near the oil pan that are odd.. i dont know what they are for honestly. the place for your dipstick should be in the BLOCK also. the only diffrence in LS1 blocks that ive ever known of is the poor oil return in the 97-99 cars. as far as i know all 00-04 LS1 blocks are the same Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantom Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 If you go through my photo album here on this site you'll see some passenger side photos of my '98 Camaro LS1 that shows the dipstick on the pasenger side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
