|  C6 oil change...
Does my car need to be level as was required for my C5? Doesn't say anything in the owners manual so does it mean I can just drive up my low profile ramps and do the job? '08 Z06 w/ dry sump here. There are 2 drain plugs like on the old Lincoln LSC's.

HI there, You can change your oil regularly. You might also want to take a look in the bulletins section about correct oil filling of the LS7. Allthebest, c4c5 | ||||||||||||||||||||

BTW, if you're tired of oil running out of the filter and down your arm as soon as you loosen it, try this. After making sure I have the correct replacement filter and draining the oil, I punch a small hole in the old filter with a 10 penny nail. When the oil in the filter has finished draining, slip a small zip lock baggie over it and remove it. Zip the baggie and dispose of the filter. No mess!
