Ls1HowTo.com LS1 to LS6 PCV Conversion

However, the question that I am asking is not answered in this article.

Also, is there a torque spec for the coolant crossover pipes?

I apologize, as I am retarded. I pulled my manifold off, and low and behold... I had swapped to LS6 lines. I do not see any way that the LS1 lines would fit with an LS6 intake AND an LS6 valley cover.

I'll bump this up. I'm curious to know the answer to the question.

Also, Jason, do not forget that there are 2 modles of LS6 valley cover. 2004 models have an integrated PCV valve, whereas pre-2004 ones do not!

Thanks for the bump man.

I have already purchased the valley cover (GM Part Number 12568002), which is the one without the integrated PCV valve. I was thinking about buying the 2004 Z06 part until I found out about the integrated valve!

I am really just searching for the torque specs for the coolant crossover pipes themselves.

Coolant crossover pipe torque spec is 106 inch pounds.

That's INCH pounds. I'm certain no one would heave 106 foot pounds on those itty bitty bolts.
