Default Pics durring intake swap.

Well hear is a few pics durring the ALL DAY ls6 intake swap from saturday. Well had the manifold off in about 1hr. Had it all back together in about another 2hrs or so. I fired up the car and my damn oil pressure gauge read past 80psi. Not too happy about that one. So I called Don ( Still sorry about that didnt relize you were sick.) He mentioned about the oil sensor in the back of the motor. Yup you guessed it I joined the " I broke my oil pressure sensor club" So back apart my intake came and back on the phone to try to find a sensor a 630pm on a saturday. Autozone in weymouth had one. So my good friend Ron drove overthere a grabbed it for me. So back together again with the intake. Fired up the car again and the damn gauge still read past 80psi. Now Iam about to loose my mind. Come to find out from Don again, he said to check the connector going to the sensor. Sure enough the one wire had pulled out of thc connector. My other friend Rich took the connector back to his stero shop and pulled the pin out a soldered a new wire on for me. Big thanks to Jay, Ron, Rich, and Slowhawk for putting up with me.
