Not sure on the kit, but out of curiosity, why do you want to delete your oil cooler?

I would say yours is the same as all the ls series engines you can buy the bypass off of eBay cheap it connects the two and does away with the oil cooler. Go to eBay and type in "ls oil cooler delete" and it should bring up what you need

If you're going to change it out, I would consider getting something like the item in the link I will paste below. This gives you a 1/8" NPT fitting there. You can fill it with a $0.25 plug from any hardware or auto store and then in the future if ever you need to hook up a mechanical oil pressure gauge for sanity purposes(this comes up a lot when questioning accuracy of electronic gauges when things aren't quite right with a motor) you will have the right port there, ready to use.

Your welcome. I might not know a whole bunch about these things but just enough to get in trouble I am seen people just block them off in a buggy and not end up well. I see people running oil coolers and people that don't and we are extremely hard on stuff offroad and until you are running really long distance at high rpm being rough on it a oil cooler isn't that imoressive
