i used those to connect the lines i made coming off the vette filter to my factory lines.
those fittings are -AN to O-ring fittings.

Here's a question for the purchase of these two items:

""oil pressure sensor adapter and coolant temp adapter from s&p"" is this so you don't have to put new stuff in or what?

I was under the impression you had to change all of the stuff out for the new 5.3 equipment....????

What is the difference between a DBcable and a DBwire? Other than you have to have the pedals for one and not the other....

DBC is a cable operated throttle body setup. DBW is electronic.

yea these allow you to use the original coolant temp and oil pressure from the truck o it shows correctly on the dash.

thanks! i wanted to be detailed because i wanted people to use my thread as a guide. the only reason mine is taking so long because i havent been working on it consistently took a month off plus i relocated so i didnt have tons of cash to throw at it. kind of a weekend project for myself im pretty sure if i bought all the parts in advance i could knock this swap out in a few days. also im learning as i go. now that ive done this swap and got it to run. i cant wait to do it again.
