Oil Pan Leak
Has anyone ever tried Blue Devil Oil Stop Leak for the chronic oil pan gasket issue? I have a '07 LS2 Base Coupe that seeps some oil on the bottom of the pan. I've received a couple of quotes from a dealer and my Corvette specialist to replace the seal for about $800.
Hoping to hear some of your experiences regarding this issue.
Thanks in advance.

To me, that sort of thing is fine for a '94 Lumina you are trying to squeeze a few more miles out of. Do you really want to pour that stuff into your high performance engine?

I have replaced my LS-2 oil pan gasket and it is not a bad DYI project. Parts are about $75.00. It takes quite a while to do it maybe eight to ten hours without a lift. All you need is basic metric hand tools and a torque wrench. There are YouTube videos out there on how to do it and I think I posted the process here on the Forum. Do a search here and see what pops up.
