Default Intake swap question!

I'm swapping my LS1 intake to an LS6 intake on my 98 TA and I'm needing to get the coolant crossover pipe and rear coolant plugs the LS1howto.com tells me I need but I have no idea where to get them. Can anyone help me out please? Thanks.

Shave the ribs on the bottom of the intake and retain the rear coolant fittings. The back of the heads are a hot spot and can use all the cooling help they can get.
