Can anyone help with a ls1 swap??

Got it!! Just took a little more muscle.

When I got the motor out and started looking at them both and transfering parts i noticed the 2001 6.0 had something the old one didnt. On the drivers side of the engine near were the oil pan and motor join there are two metal pipes that join together near the rear into a square metal box. I will try to get pics tomorrow so maybe ya'll can help me determine what it is and if i need it.

those are oil cooler lines. since my 82 didnt have one i just bought a B&M oil cooler from summit.

I see on my 5.3 were this would go, would i be wrong in assuming that i can take it off the 6.0 and not worry about it?

Yea, just swap the block with the tubes, with the cover that's on the 5.3. make sure the gasket is in good shape, if not get a new one.

Thats what it looked like to me.

is there a real difference in running oil cooler lines for efficiency or power?
