During LS6 manifold swap. I can't get a new one til tuesday, none of the local dealers have any in stock. This sucks. lol

No kidding. We were making great time on it too. I disconnected the brake booster too, but I think the line got snagged and that's why it broke.

I dunno. I have several friends who work at various GM dealerships. I called all of them, but none of their dealerships had them in stock. I had one of them order it for me and it should be here tuesday ish.

I replaced the knock sensors & harness already, moved the rails/injectors over to the LS6 mani, now I Just need the sending unit.

My knock sensors were so rusty. I cleaned out the holes in the valley cover with some carb cleaner and wiped them out. Then I threw the Knock Sesnors in and RTV'd around the harness seals.
