Parts needed for ls6 manifold install? My ls6 should be here in a few days and i'm just wanting to make sure that i get EVERY part that I need. Part numbers etc. would be extremely helpful, thanks all.
Mine came with everything I needed (gaskets and coolant tubes/blockoffs). So can't help with the P/N's on those. If yours is new it should come with them as well. Do you still have EGR? If so you will need the blockoff plate for the manifold because the system has to leave. Nothing else is needed. It's a rather straight forward/easy install.
Easy install.
Just pick up the coolant crossover pipe and the blockoff plugs.
Be carefull removing and installing the intake manifold or you will break the oil pressure sending unit. I did, and i picked up a new unit from O'Reillys for $26.
It just so happened I had a failing unit, because I had a slight rise in oil pressure.
