Everthing you said is correct. Inconnel works better for extreme duty like blowers and boats. Blowers due to heat, and boats due to higher RPM/always on...

[QUOTE=akrapovic;317406]Here are the piston squirters. Side note, if anybody is looking for these for an LS7 or RHS block I have an extra set.

How much do you want for the squirters?

I am using inconnel exh as well on my blower motor...

Does all the factory LS7 blocks have the provisions to install those squirters? Or is special machining required?

Thanks Rich

[akrapovic]

Special machining is required. It wasnt a big deal for mine. Tap threaded hole into oil passage and also provision for locating pin.
