Stainless Steel Advantage Aerospace-Grade Material: CNC-machined from 304 stainless steel (ASTM A276 compliant) with 3x higher tensile strength than aluminum alloys. Resists exhaust heat up to 1,500°F (815°C) and prevents galvanic corrosion against iron blocks . Laser-Validated Threads: Thread profiles verified by coordinate-measuring machines (CMM) to maintain <0.05mm tolerance, ensuring leak-proof seals at 250 PSI oil pressure . Swap-Specific Functions · Coolant Temp Adapter (M16x1.5 → 1/8" NPT): Replaces factory plugs in passenger-side cylinder heads for Gen III/IV LS engines (4.8L-6.2L), compatible with low-profile sensors in cramped engine bays . · Oil Pressure Adapter (M12x1.5 → 3/8" NPT): Installs at top-rear engine block locations behind intake manifolds, providing pressurized oil access for LS1/LSX/LS3 swaps . Proven Compatibility Directly replaces OEM components on: · Engine Models: LS1, LSX, LS3, and 4.8L/5.3L/6.0L/6.2L variants · Critical Locations: o Coolant ports: Driver-side cylinder head o Oil galleries: Rear of block near knock sensors Installation Protocol 1. Degrease block threads with brake cleaner 2. Hand-tighten adapters until copper washers compress (Torque: 18-22 ft-lb) 3. Apply nickel-based anti-seize to stainless threads to prevent galling Kit Includes · 1x M16x1.5 → 1/8" NPT Coolant Temp Adapter + Sealing Washer · 1x M12x1.5 → 3/8" NPT Oil Pressure Adapter + Sealing Washer
Product Features
- Compatible with: All LS Series Engines
- 304 Stainless Construction: CNC-machined per ASTM A276 standards, delivering 3x tensile strength over aluminum alloys; withstands 1,500F (815C) exhaust heat while resisting galvanic corrosion against iron blocks
- LS-Swap Specific Port Conversion: M16x1.51/8"NPT adapter replaces coolant temp plugs in Gen III/IV cylinder heads (4.8L-6.2L); M12x1.53/8"NPT adapter accesses oil galleries behind intakes for LS1/LSX/LS3
- Tool-Free Installation Protocol: Degrease threads, hand-tighten until copper washers compress (18-22 ft-lb torque), apply nickel anti-seize to prevent cold welding; fits 2000-2013 Silverado/Sierra coolant ports and 1997-2017 Camaro oil galleries
- Complete Dual-Adapter Kit: Includes 1x M161/8"NPT coolant temp adapter with washer + 1x M123/8"NPT oil pressure adapter with washer, eliminating separate purchases for full sensor integration
