Alright so this past sat I hit a huge pothole in these f*** up Houston streets and I believe I damaged my oil pan pretty bad could that cause the truck not to fire back up ? It leacked all the oil on the floor idk what to do. Do i need a new motor or just fix thepoil pan my concerns are that the motor might have just lost compression or I really screwed something up
Do you have an oil level sensor in the pan? I'm just wondering if that was damaged or not working if it would cause a no-start. If the pan isn't too destroyed you could fix it, or pick up a cheapo at the junkyardQuote:

Will this work on the Ls swap I have ?
That would prob work, but do you want to spend that much on a pan? Why not buy used? Did you find anything on your research of the oil level sensor? I'm not sure because I'm still a noob when it comes to the LS world
I don't mind I should have actually swapped it when I was initially doing the motor swap would have saved me time and money Ijust want to know if anyone had a problem with this and the sensor might be the reason why it wont turn on I'm going to check it out tomorrowQuote:
