If you dont want to waste 40 bucks just modify the ls1 coolant pipe. Use a pipe cutter and cut on both sides of the T and flange the ends a little bit and use a piece of hose and clamp it. Do the same for the rear. I had the back tube on the driver side go behind the OSU to the pass side. Worked like a charm
