Default Ls6 Engine Swap into 98 Camaro

I recently purchased a LS6 Enigine kit from scoggin dickey for my 98 camaro. Im going to get the LS6 intake next. Does the engine need the steam vent tubes or do i get the coolant pipe and plug kit. Also there is a small tube in the front of the valley cover(where does this connect to ?)

Also, does the dealership sell factory manuals this would be a big help.

The tube in the gally cover is the ls6 style pvc system. You can get a gm manual at the dealer but get your check book out. Not sure what you mean on the steam vent. When I put my ls6 intake on I just used the two plugs for the rear in the heads and a front crossover tube.

It usually does not. Most people who sell them used keep the tubes as they are needed for FAST setups. Some places that sell new ones will include the tubes/plugs, but some do not.

I got my intake from SLP, the only thing I'll ever buy from them, but it had all the gaskets, sensors, tubing, and block offs for a lil over $400, worth it to me, especially since it was new.
