Doesn't matter.....I was asking about the LS3 not some random motor you found info about and I was asking in particular about the same engine in stock form that this 1LE will be using.

GM says add an extra quart of oil for any cornering forces above 1.1 1.2 G's

And apparrently theres a newer oil pan with baffles

The GM recommendation is to add an additional quart of oil for any activity that demands sustained 1.1 1.2 G + cornering forces. Plus the Camaro's LS3 uses a different oil pan.

There was also work done to reduce oil windage in all the Post 2009 LS3's. There was a lot of carry over additions from the development of the LS9 that have mitigated the oil issues..


In short AON.. No.

"The oil pan used on the Camaro LS3 is quite a bit different than the one used on LS1s in the 4 Gen cars and it's different from the one used by the LS3 when it was introduced on the Corvette for 2008. The Camaro pan is a bit bigger inside holding a additional two quarts of oil compared to the Vette LS3. Otherwise, the pan is similar in concept to other Gen 3/4 oil pans in that, besides holding all the oil, it acts as a sound insulator and add some rigidity to the bottom of the block. In addition, the Camaro LS3 has an engine oil cooler because, according to ACE Ron Meegan, "...of the (vehicle) weight and the (reduced) air flow around the engine in this package, some of the more aggressive driving modes required us to use a cooler to meet our oil temperature requirements." The Camaro oil cooler is the same type of oil-to-coolant heat exchanger used by the supercharged LSA in the Cadillac CTS-V and it is mounted in a similar location, on the left side of the oil pan."
