The Oil Pressure sending unit is pretty easy to get to once the intake is off.

I'm gonna do my ls6 intake tonight. Doesn't look too difficult. I am sure your problems are that you don't have easy access to tools.

This thing should wake up with the intake! Its bein held back being cammed and all.

It is $3.70 where I am. I did the LS6 intake swap tonight. Took me about 2 hours. I can see why people have trouble. Some of the lines behind the intake could be easy to break.

Best thing I can say is feel around with your hand, feel around again, then feel some more, then take a mirror and look, then feel again. Double check everything back there!
