What did you do with the coolant hose that went to the oil cooler?

Awesome brother. I've seen ones where guys are beating real estate out of their headers because of the oil cooler. That is way easier. Thank you.

He says they are Pace setter and the part number. I've heard of those for small block chevys

Yes sir

Just curious on the oil sending unit what wire did you plug into if a wire at all… also is a simple upper radiator hose suffice to replace the on already there?

I have an Autometer oil pressure gauge on the dash next to steering wheel. The sensor wire from it runs down to the gauge sender . I just got a upper radiator hose from Pontiac g8 to replace my two piece one

Any negative effects from deleting the oil cooler? I wonder if there is a way to relocate it ?

probably not; There are so many LS engines running without them that I figured it would be fine, but there are aftermarket options if you wanted to have an oil cooler

great content love keep the faith friend!

@@robertdvs09 that’s awesome, A little motivation to get this project finished up! About to tackle the belt drive soon. Did you delete the oil cooler?

How did you go about booking it up to the rest of the exhaust?

I was gonna have local exhaust shop hook me up or I might just buy couple universal exhaust adapters 2.5” to 3” and cut that donut off to have straight pipe to pipe connection to weld

I have read some headers might clear the oil cooler, I think Doug Thorley headers that will fit a G8 or SS. Anyone else know for sure?
