I ordered a pair last summer and they were about $35.00 special order through my local chevy dealer. If you have the part #s (not at home right now) go to www.gmpartsdirect.com and plug them in. Otherwise, I'll hit you up in an hour and let you know if they have them (if I can tell). I think they'll say if they're on back order when you add to cart. Did that when I tried to get the LT4 KM from them...

Part # is 12552974 "BOLT SCREW ENG COO"
I got them from (IIRC)

Called the toll free number... I have an invoice that is from:

LOL your going to hate me but I ordered 2 of these last week. They told me they were discontinued but they had a set that was not in the computer as being in stock but the guy had seen them in the parts rack a few days earlier. I had no idea it was this bad. I know the power steering pulley is also discontinued there were 2 left in the country yesterday but 1 place closed and another was a false in stock report. Lots of these parts are going to be going by by in the next year so if you need something you may need to pick them up soon as parts ****’s are going to be buying up the good ****.

^^ I was thinking over what you'd need to do this last night... a short piece of brake line the right size/ diameter, maybe. Brass fittings and copper tube, even... I'm gonna do a write-up if I can figure out a way to do it cheap...
I think maybe a male/male threaded fitting in the back of each head, then a compression collar onto those to hold the line. This will give you a quick disconnect when removing the heads...

.I think I posted a reply to a thread like this before though, and posted some pictures. It might have been another forum, but I'll try to find it.

90* elbow on the drivers side head, "T" fitting on the passenger, then ran a high pressure/high heat host from the drivers head to the "T", and from the other side of the "T" to the normal spot it goes to on the radiator.
