LS1/Vortec Intake swap
I have a 5.3 Vortec and I am swapping an LS1 intake onto it. I heard there are cooler lines below the intake that also need swapped. I'm having a hard time finding the LS1 intake cooler lines, can someone point me in the direction I can find those and how much I am likely to pay.
Thanks
Thanks

if you are doing that, and going from the spider style coolant tubes, you need to get the caps for the back as well, and 4 gaskets. use the stock bolts.
front crossover tube
rear caps
you will need 2
and the gaskets you will need 4 of them

If you're running the truck accessories, I believe you have to do something about the idler near the top/drivers side as well. Check out the truck forum, but someone has an easy relocation kit for this swap and that makes it nice.
