Header Questions
Ok so bear with me here. After all, I am new to these cars and to the LS platform in general. I have spent much time building and wrenching on my own cars, but I've always been into diesels and Fords. From my limited research I was wanting to know if the set o pace setter G8 GT headers would fit on my Caprice PPV. I have a 2012 and understand that I may have to delete my oil cooler. Can someone answer this question and fill me in on what all deleting the oil cooler entails? Thanks a lot guys!
Re: Header Questions
Yes. they should fit. You have to plug the oil cooler lines, and use a different radiator hose. Don't know the part numbers, but plenty of info on G8 sites. I have G8 Kooks 17/8 on my blower car, and I had to delete the oil cooler, no biggy for me.

Re: Header Questions
Also, how many o2 sensors do we have? Ordering my exhaust supplies. Doing the Pace Setter headers, 3" high flow cats, 3" H-Pipe, and 3" in/out Flo-Pro mufflers... Ballin' on a budget lol.

Re: Header Questions
But don't the Chevy SS headers fit WITH the cooler?!? The rest you have to rig up, but you keep the cooler. That's my plan, anyway.
