I know the oil pressure sensor is located on a fitting under the back of the distributor on a L98 but I don't know where it is on a LT1. Somebody help this guy.

Frank92,

The pressure sensor & fuel fuel pump switch are located on the top rear of the engine. Can't find a good picture in the manual. There is a tee fitting with 2 adapters. It appears the oil pressure sensor is either verticle or to the right looking forward. Don't have my car here, unfortunately. That shud be a start for ya. I'm gonna have to get a scanner one of these days. Hope this helps.
