So update for you guys, corporate never gave me anything for my trouble, citing that they gave me a loaner for the duration of the repairs, and were replacing the whole motor.

The dealership FINALLY fixed a few paint chips in December after 8+ months. I am still waiting for a replacement shift knob, as they damaged it. The part has been ordered several times now. I think i have been calling the dealership about once every other week, including actually taking time off work to go drop/pick the car with the promise of the issue being resolved.

For future reference, I am sure most of you know this but for any poor soul like mine,

If there is any damage/outstanding work on your vehicle and you have a loaner, do not sign for or accept your vehicle back because the loaner/rental cost them ~$150 a day and they will take care of it really quick when they have to foot that bill.

I see you're in NJ, as am I. Would it be out of line for me to ask which dealer?

I'm a little late to this thread but I want to clear up some of the very incorrect data that's been posted for anyone who may stumble across it in the future. First and foremost, the oil pumps in all LT1's are the same being either a single stage (used in the wet sump configuration) or 2 stage (used in the dry sump configuration). They are all variable displacement and feature a solenoid operated flow control feature. Submerged? I'm not sure what that is referencing as all Gen 5 oil pumps mount up front on the crankshaft like the previous LS series.

The primary difference from platform to platform is the oil pan. On wet sump applications it is changed for various reasons but will always maintain a pickup that is positioned at the optimal height above the bottom of the pan. This does not, however, account for the different capacities between platforms as that is driven off the depth of the pan itself.

The oiling system utilized in the Gen 5 small block is pretty robust and fairly advanced with the variable output and piston pin oilers but is still just an oiling system. OP I'm glad you got your car fixed by GM, I think these situations are a good reminder to all of us to pull that dipstick and check the lifeblood of the engine.

I've been down the bad engine road myself. It took a lot of persistence, but GM replaced the motor, and due to the other electrical issues in combination with the blown motor, GM is replacing my car with a new one. I feel your pain OP.....
