Odds and ends for my LS swap help needed. PCV, Oil cooler, Terminator X etc
LTX and LSXPutting LT1s, LS1s, and their variants into Third Gens is becoming more popular. This board is for those who are doing and have done the swaps so they can discuss all of their technical aspects including repairs, swap info, and performance upgrades.
Odds and ends for my LS swap help needed. PCV, Oil cooler, Terminator X etc
So I got pretty much everything figured out but Google and reading through all the stickied articles and first few pages I didn't see some answers for a few last points for my LS swap.
I have an M/E Wagner tunable billet PCV valve which works GREAT for my TPI motor and I bought the inline adapter to use on an LS engine. But I'm trying to figure out the best way to run my PCV lines with a FAST LSXR 103mm intake and TB with Holley Tall LSX Valve Covers and a Moroso Air/Oil Separator. I mean I'd probably be able to figure it out but my brain is fried trying to figure out 20 things at once with this thing including building as homemade engine run stand to make sure I have EVERYTHING to start and run this engine BEFORE I put it into the car. So I just need some help from someone that already figured it out if possible.
Second, what kind of oil cooler should I run? I have a Billet Valley cover plate that doesn't have the provision to run the oil pressure sensor on the stock location so I need to run it off a cooler port too.
Third, anyone have a handy guide on what to do to run the stock gauges off a Holley Terminator X system? I have all the stock wiring diagrams and just want to know if there is any conversions I need to do from running LS sensors and OE gauges. Later I'll figure out how to run a Holley Digital Dash and get it cleanly installed in my car.
Last, what IAT/MAT sensor are yall using? I'm running this LS3 stroker NA until I can afford the Procharger head unit (I bought the procharger bracket system and Innovator West Damper) so Id like to run one that can be used for both an NA intake and a boosted intake pipe. Or do they mount in the intake manifold?
Picture of current progress
Thanks!

I know some of these answers in great detail but I'm not going to help you. I've seen how you talk to others at this forum. The reputation you're building is catching up with you....

I just don't take condescending snarky attitudes from grumpy keyboard warriors. If you think that's a bad "reputation" then so be it. I don't respect people because they are "old members." Respect is earned and not given. I bet if you met me IRL you'd probably think I'm a nice guy. Oh well.
If you look at all my post history, I am completely polite and respectful to people that are to me. *shrug*
