Default Exhaust install

General question... I’m going to be installing long tube headers from TSP and I believe I saw a video of a job where they individual had to pull oil lines to make this happen? Also go with a factory gasket or one from TSP

On my 2005 I didn't have to pull any oil lines to install Kooks LT. I used a new oem gm gasket and worked great.

If dry sump, yes you will need to drain oil and disconnect oil lines for passenger side installation. Be sure to get new oil line gaskets.

07 Base does not have oil lines, you have a wet sump engine...

Grand Sports and Z06's have dry sump engines and have oil lines...
