I have the Z1 solid engine, urethane transmission, and spl solid diff. Check all your bolts and nuts after installing because things will get rattled loose.

Make sure the oil pressure gauge goes to 150 psi. If it only goes to 100 psi. You will peg it on cold starts and high rpm.

Anybody running Z1/Stillen intakes and a 34 row oil cooler have any helpful hints on how to route the cooler lines so as not to touch the filters?

Pick me, pick me.

They will touch the passenger filter. Nothing you do about it unless you make new lines.

Thanks! Funnily enough, I had made new lines... went from a sideways mounted 25 row Setrab series 9 to a 34 row series 6. Bought new Aeroquip lines and fittings bc I trimmed the old Z1 lines and they ended up being 3 inches too short for an upright oil cooler mount. I want to keep the cooler on the driver side. If it wasnt for #livinginchicago I'd pull the stock oil/coolant sandwich and the attendant coolant hardlines and run the oil lines along that path and up through the driver side wheel well.

I'm thinking I will pull the closer line and put a 120 degree fitting on it. Still will need to trim the lines again. Which is annoying bc I already put SECO 7 seals on the sandwich-side lines and those are crush-style seals so they're gonna have to be replaced... oh well.

I'm like Sisyphus when it comes to Rule #1: test everything for final fitment before finalizing.
