Darn cheap, too! For BOTH Level Sensors AND the Vehicle Side of the Connectors it was $10 at my local pick-a-part!

Re: Looking for a Remote Oil Filter and External Oil Cooler Setup for the 455
You could spin this one on for $20... Trans-Dapt Performance Spin-On Oil Filter Bypass Adapters 1020... From Summit Racing... And run your lines wherever you like. This one fits Pontiac & Olds 455. Because my 1985 Toronado had been hauling an 18' Aristocrat Land Commander Trailer all of it's lif...

ADDITIONAL: I also took the Arms off of my Old Sensors and installed them on the Replacement Sensors... Slight difference in Arm Length...

Re: 79-85 E-body ELC (Level control)
Used GM 22189430 from wrecking yard... Took vehicle side of the connector, too. Spliced cannibalized connector to vehicle. Bolted up Level Sensor. VOILA! Pure Freakin' Magic! NOTE: One of my 1985 Toronados was wired up BACKWARDS! Had to swap Exhaust Solenoid and Compressor Signal Leads in the connec...
