One Thing you must do First Before installing Headers on a PPV

- This week we install long tube headers on the caprice ppv. There is one thing that you have to do for them to fit though. These long tube headers should help the L77 6.0L breath and make more power. Stay tuned, as we are one step closer to getting the LSA Blower on there!

Awesome brother. I've seen ones where guys are beating real estate out of their headers because of the oil cooler. That is way easier. Thank you.
What headers are these??
He says they are Pace setter and the part number. I've heard of those for small block chevys
@@GrandPitoVic thanks man!
Yes sir
What did you do with the coolant hose that went to the oil cooler?
great content love keep the faith friend!
Super excited for this build, I appreciate that!
@@repairandsharegarage i just finished my 2012 ppv lsa ,believe me you are in for a great time all the hard work pays off big time extremely powerful!!!!
@@robertdvs09 that’s awesome, A little motivation to get this project finished up! About to tackle the belt drive soon. Did you delete the oil cooler?
I have read some headers might clear the oil cooler, I think Doug Thorley headers that will fit a G8 or SS. Anyone else know for sure?
Just curious on the oil sending unit what wire did you plug into if a wire at all… also is a simple upper radiator hose suffice to replace the on already there?
I have an Autometer oil pressure gauge on the dash next to steering wheel. The sensor wire from it runs down to the gauge sender . I just got a upper radiator hose from Pontiac g8 to replace my two piece one
Any negative effects from deleting the oil cooler? I wonder if there is a way to relocate it ?
probably not; There are so many LS engines running without them that I figured it would be fine, but there are aftermarket options if you wanted to have an oil cooler
@@repairandsharegaragewhat did you use to plug the oil cooler
How did you go about booking it up to the rest of the exhaust?
I was gonna have local exhaust shop hook me up or I might just buy couple universal exhaust adapters 2.5” to 3” and cut that donut off to have straight pipe to pipe connection to weld
What year is this caprice
2013
Nice! Did You Use O2 Extensions or no?
I didn’t try to plug them in yet but it looks like the cable would reach down there though , I’ve been working on other stuff for the LSA
Did that l77 come with 823 heads or did you swap them on?
Came with them, it was also Dod deleted, now I’m wandering if the police department I got it from dropped a replacement engine in?what head do they normally come with ?
I dont really know! I got one recently that claimed it was ls3 swapped and I have the 823 heads as well. Naturally the guy sold it to me and 2 days later the transmission let's go
@@J0LLYGreenGIANT damn, I googled it just now looks like L77 did come with 823 heads. Decent heads just a little heavier valves then some of the other Ls3 heads
Not looking good for me haha I think 10k was waaaaaay too much for this particular car, if you meet a Josh Hammermeister from omaha nebraska, run the opposite direction! lol
what was that thing installed next to the oil filter? can i get a link to it?
ICT Billet Oil Pressure Sensor Relocation Adapter Port
Was it this? I found it on Amazon for my oil pressure sending unit
ICT Billet Oil Pressure Sensor Relocation Adapter Port was it this?
What did you do for your upper radiator hose
I did a Pontiac g8 upper but it took me two tries , guess they had a couple designs depending on year you pick. I don’t have the part number right off hand though
@@repairandsharegarage Thank you
would you be interested in selling the stock exhaust manifols and cats
i am putting my caprice back to stock exhaust
I would but a guy already scooped them up
I got a set here in ga
Got a set in kansas city
