    What oil to use in 2005 6spd corvette

    Never mind I just did some research, so from what I’ve seen the AFM towers still have oil flow on non AFM engines correct? And if so is this problem possible if orings were not installed correctly on the valley cover

    Hello, I recently rebuilt my 2005 corvette’s LS2. I’m about ready to start it but I want to be 100% certain what I’m giving my car will be the best for it.
