Its finally on the road after 9 monthts ( that time frame seems kinda funny) anyway 9 months later and she is back on the road.....little banged up here and there but that will be soon fixed. This car is nothing like it was it is an absolute animal. The only thing that kinda is draw back is exhaust fumes do sometimes get into the interior of the car, oh well the pains of having no cats.

so i dont know who is a member of ls1tech, but i hear that kooks is in the process of fabing up a true dual exhaust setup for the lt1 motors  . bmxrider and 86ta can confirm the car is extremely loud. I think this is the direction where I will head to as far as exhaust system goes. its looking like a $2000.00 investment ....what the hell its only money

Cool... drive the car from the exxon in point pleasant beach to mouses in lonoka harbor ,shut the car off, im there like half hour, start car back up.....low oil light back on..... WTF. anyone ever experience this before , its drinking oil, the car has no leaks and runs as normal as it can be.

castrol 10w40, and its really clean, has that clearish look to it. As per chad over at Golen his instructions where as follow first start up, check for any leaks giving the motor about 5 minutes to start warming up. after about 5 minutes run car (in neutral) for 20 minutes at 2000 rpm while some is checking headers, checking for leaks. last step change oil filter and oil, refill with 6 quarts. I wonder because the canton is a bigger oil pan is the senor just not making a proper read?

Get the engine broken in and keep checking the oil. I would make a call to Golen just to keep them aware of what you are experiencing and also ask for their advice.

Not synthetic, right?
And the true purpose of a larger oil pan is not more capacity but better oil control. Golen should tell you the correct capacity. I'd ask him if the light keeps going off. Hell, you paid him enough I'm sure.

I've always been told to vary the rpm and do some strong engine breaking to help seat the rings. No wot runs but bring it up to 4k, leave in gear and let off the gas slowing a considerable amount, do it again etc. See any smoke out the tailpipes?

The oil needs to be going somewhere. If not through the engine then its leaking out somewhere.
