Oil Cooler Lines - Corvette Central
Noticed that Corvette Central is now selling LT5 oil cooler line/hose assemblies. The metal portion is colored black...painted or powder coated. They may have been offering these lines for a while but this is the first time I've ever seen 'em. Not a bad price either: $189

Re: Oil Cooler Lines - Corvette Central
Those look like NOS, but if re-manufactured, that is a FANTASTIC piece of work. I tried for months to get someone to remake them per OEM, if CC have remade them this good, i tip my hat to them!!!!

Very likely NOS and one of a kind. Doubt there are any more.

Re: Oil Cooler Lines - Corvette Central
Not sure I'd trust them...That same style of crimp GM uses today leaks. Had the trans cooler lines on my 08 Silverado changed under warranty a couple months ago. I have a couple buddies that are GM tech's, they are changing them out on a regular basis. If they 'Have' got it figured out , & tell GM what your doing.

Not NOS but reproduction.

Re: Oil Cooler Lines - Corvette Central
I just ordered a set of these, i'll let you know how they look when i get them. Either way, these retail cheaper than what the S/S set costs us to make, so i'm hoping they are well built.

Re: Oil Cooler Lines - Corvette Central
Got the hoses today, must say they look fantastic quality and are well worth the money. Can't say how long they will last, but they fill the need for OEM style hoses that people have asked about.
