First time swap. LQ9 into 95 OBS

[Jeebalow]

hey. glad to hear that all my detail has helped you out. its not easy to find explanations of things cuz a lot of people dont want to take the time to type it all. especially about smog. it SOUNDS like your in the same boat as me from what you said... if your getting the ls1 pan, i assume your truck is dropped also. how much? and based on you wanting the o2 sensors and only a 112 LSA cam, sounds like your tryiing to keep it smog legal.... but i cant see where your from. are you in cali too trying to do a CARB legal swap?

ill keep an eye for your thread but just in case, post the link here when you get it started. i def want to check it out.

as for the oil cooler, from what i read, its not really NEEDED as most guys just block it off and they have no problems. but i figured since GM had it factory, and i do plan on pulling a boat in the near future, any extra cooling is benficial. so the extra 100 bucks for the parts was fine with me. plus, who can resist the cool looking braided lines and AN fittings!!!???? haha!!!

hit me up if you have any quesions. more than glad to help ya out.

It's dropped 4/6, but I am not doing a CARB legal swap. I'm in Oregon and they just sniff the exhaust without even popping the hood.

I'll look into the oil cooler a little more, but I am thinking I will add the lines especially if it was just 100 more. Plus I get braided ss hose and AN fittings lol.

I'll post that link but it won't be for at least another month. I am graduating next month and am swamped with school work and getting other projects at home finished up.

Keep up the good work!

Edit- so I noticed you looked for the pf48 or whatever filter that was. Is there a reason you didn't swap the fitting in the oil pan so you could use the truck filter instead?
