Re: LSX Guys

Its the lines to the oil cooler in the radiator. You should be able to plug them or cut them off and have them welded shut at the aluminum block if you dont want to run a cooler. They only run part of the oil thru the cooler not all of it, or you can just run a cooler

Re: LSX Guys

Rob is that an actual plate or just the bolts stuffed back in there?

It's the plate that was on the pan when I got it. I think there are some different versions of it. I don't see why you can't take a piece of 1/4" aluminum and make your own block-off.

Re: LSX Guys

Hmmm. I would love to make my own but lack the machinery to do so. I will look into a GM part

Re: LSX Guys

I used 2 plugs and some rectorseal, cost about $2.00, and have done it on a couple of engines with no problems.
