Oil Pressure? I just put an ls6 manifold on my 2000 T/A amd the oil pressure gauge jumps up past 80 and stays till i turn the car off and then it goes down to about 60 when the car turns off. I was wonding if i broke the oil pressure sensor when i was doing the swap or something.
I agree, I did the samething. If you turn your car to the on position (don't start the car) and the needle immediately goes past 80 then you have either a disconnected sensor wire or you broke the actual sensor, or it is just loose. I bought mine at Napa for about $32.00 (I think).

It is item #4 in this picture.
Not hard to get at and you don't need to remove the intake manifold.
This is the oil pressure sensor, not the oil level switch which is on the pan.

I seen someone said to do it with the intake still on.Some people dont have that kind of patients to work back there like that.Its alot easier to just pull the intake.
