z6....y series motors are notorious for having poor pump flow and spinning bearings at 100K

y series need the y series AL oilpan. Plus steel is more forgiving if you hit something will it and it'll just dent it unlike the AL where it'll just crack and goodbye oil and then engine and have fun walking. Z6 pump with any 95 and under sohc oilpan.
