Qustions about replaicing oil pressure sensor
After my oil pressure jumped up to 130lbs last night I did a search on the forum and found it is pretty common for the oil pressure sensor to go bad. I also found out that I had to pull the intake manifold to get to it. My questions are do I need to replace the gaskets when replacing the manifold, and where do I get the sensor and the gaskets, (if needed) at a decent price. I know decent price and corvette parts don't go together but all the chevy dealers are giving me different prices that vary as much as $20 each.

The dealer replaced my intake gaskets (you know how that is), but I've heard many reuse them and watched an installer reuse them on my own car.
Try GMPartsDirect if you are exactly sure of the PN, otherwise I recommend paying the extra few bucks and talking to live person (Bob) at Fitchner, he is great and you will know what you are getting.
