Default LQ OIL Cooler

On my 2005 LQ swap into a 1968 Camaro do I need the oil coolant tubes that run up by the radiator? I did a broad search on google and some said cap it while others said use it. Theres also a relocation kit in the classifieds right now that kind of got me wondering. I made it about 10 posts in trying to find an answer then this popped up so figured id use it.

nah you dont need em unless youre towing or making sustained high speed runs. street and strip use in a non-filled block oil temps will be fine

Don't forget to get the GM block off plate for your oil pan,you just can't make your own plate or plug the holes.
