Default whats the difference?

Okay some of you may have read by now my truck is leaking anti-freeze from under the intake, before I take it off to change the seals I would really like to change the whole intake I found this one and wanted some opinions on how it would compare to the hughes manifold. I just figured if I spend 100 on the "fix plate" why not go all the way.

The one you linked to is for a larger throttle body setup. You would need an adapter, or something of the sorts. I believe RM_Indy runs that one.

I'm using the M1, and it is nice. It entirely eliminates the plenum pan as the whole manifold is one piece. It definitely gives it more ***** during acceleration and passing, although some claim you may lose low end. I'm not all that familiar with the Hughes, but with either intake, it's going to be much better overall than stock.

Okay when I change the pan and gaskets or get a new intake I was planning on changing my 02 sensors because the plenum was leaking before. I was wondering what people thought about the 02 simulators vs. the stock sensors, also is there a preferred sensors for these trucks were?

NTK sensors (made by NGK) are the best. And the Bosch sensors for our trucks dont fit!

IMO get the number off your 02 sensor and give it to the dealer. they told me 75 bucks for mine (precat)
