Okay so I'm in the middle of taking the old LS1 intake off and pop, I comes forward. Once completely removed I found the black sensor in the back of the intake has cracked. know it sits there kinda like a bobble head .. What to do? will JB WELD hold or better to just wait for tomorrow and get a new one.

Using the LS1 how to guide and there was nothing said about it might need to and that I'm sure I'm no the only one that's run into this.

Can I get a new one from a part store?

thanks for the help

Oil pressure sending unit, if you want to sound like a pro at the stealership when you buy a new one!

I think i'm about the only person on this board who has removed their intake and not broken that bitch! And i've removed it twice!

You're not the only one. We got lucky from what it sounds like.
