This one We plumb it with -12 lines with Brown and Miller Racing crimped on fittings. Using the -12 lines we are confident the flow through the hose and bends in fittings is equal to a -8 internal style journal / hard line. |

I used Amsoil 5w30 signature series in the ZL1 and 10w-30 Amsoil Dominator racing oil in the Z/28. I have heard that 15w-50 may cause higher temps due to the oil pump working overtime to pump thicker weight oils. Myth? Not sure but it seemed my oil temps were higher with 15w-50. My oil pressure seems ok but it drops significantly when the temps are high (290-300°F). At idle, my oil pressure is usually 2.8-3 bar but will lower to 1.0-1.2 bar at idle when the oil is scorching hot.

agreed but I no longer have a GM LS7. I have the ERL short block which has different clearances etc.

Awesome. Like I said in the Z/28 topic. I'd be interested in this if you can put a kit together.

These are the main components to the oil cooler kit.
Convoluted PTFE Hose http://www.bmrs.net/PTFE_hose_01.html Crimped on Race Quality Fittings http://www.bmrs.net/AC-crimped_fittings_01.html Massive Fluidynne Cooler https://www.summitracing.com/parts/f...0618/overview/ Improved Racing Oil Block with or without Thermostat http://www.improvedracing.com/oil-co...12f-p-435.html We are working out the details for a bolt on bracket as opposed to the custom brackets we have been making. The lines and fittings are the best you can buy to minimize any potential for leaks. |

If you do work out the "details" that would definitely help and speed up installation. Thank you and standing by. |

When I had my ZL1 I ran it a few times at over 300*F. Always changed my oil around 3,000 miles and always did an oil analysis report. Every time the engine looked to be healthy. So if you get it near 300*F I wouldn't be too worried. Definitely wouldn't make a habit of it though.

Absolutely love it. The thing is beast. I've only changed out the pads and brake fluid. On the same tire (Nitto NT01) as my modified ZL1 I am over 4 seconds per lap faster at Texas World Speedway.
