It's attached to a functional intake.. the intake isn't worth much without the plate, but it's worth less than nothing without it- which is it's assessed value to me right now anyway...

I'll part with it for $50 just the plate..

cool...

has anyone here ever jumped up and down on a kegger, crushed it and tried to turn it in to the scrap yard for $$?? Or, has anyone tried to slip it into a bag of crushed cans heading toward the scrap yard? (<- that's a possibility.. the UT/UGA game is coming this weekend, and mucho beer will be abused)..

Aluminum fetches a pretty good scrap price at this point.... and the manifold weighs in pretty good too.... Might buy ya dinner?

I got the SA double roller timing set from Advance Auto. Quality piece, works great. Under 50 bucks. I installed mine straight up. I didn't know what affects altering cam timing would have on the engine.... so, didn't test that theory.

Yep, can get the gasket from advance as well. (get the nice fel-pro guy.)

If you are going to be walking into advance anyway, ASK them for the double roller timing set. MUCH cheaper than hughes.

Not to sure if you are aware of this or not, the intake manifold bolts are TTY make sure you get new ones before you start.
