yes, you have to order the entire container/tray. Call Scoggin-Dickey and order it though, they are a site sponsor. www.SDPC2000.com

You will need to keep the tube/hose, cap, and rubber grommet off of the old one. The replacements don't come with those parts.

Yup, what Nineball said. I had to replace mine not too long ago. Unfourtunately, I didn't consult LS1Tech first and ended up paying $210. for the replacement through the dealer.

I'm all about helping the sponsors, but they are more than 50% more expensive than another site...

Sorry, I have to correct myself. I didn't have the invoice in front of me when I responded. The reservior, p/n# 10402687 was $62.00, the Dex-cool added was $16.00 and labor brought the total to $205.

Do it yourself... save lottsa dough! -Rich

installed on my car.


mine broke every time out at an AutoX event on my old camaro and found out about this hold down from a guy there. My current camaros hold down broke it while I was riping around a couple turns on the street! so I went straight to this hold down.
