Y'all going to get his a** in trouble! Mom's can tell. ----- even if they are not home! That is covered in mom101 class!

 

The happy home maker goon squad is going to come and tar and feather you now for giving out classified information. If your dog starts barking, you better start running.

 

Some whoopins are worth it... A clean intake manifold likely falls a bit short of that value though... Make sure she's gone for the afternoon before you pull the trigger on that..

 

This is why I stay here.

 

To the OP, what's the YMM or your rig?

 

heres a BIG hint. DO NOT CHANGE YOUR TIMING CHAIN UNLESS YOU TDC THE MOTOR!!! i thought i was doing a quick plenum fix and timing chain. now i have to spend a extra 400 bucks for heads i shouldnt of needed

 

oh and when you remove the intake you need new intake bolts. there TTY (torque to yeild) and you cant reuse them

 

71dodge I read your thread I dont want to get into a mess like that lol

 

I'm getting ready to do mine too, probably a manifold swap tho and maybe timing chain and efan. I also have to put in my new speed sensor and new balljoints. Luckily I have a bike to get to work, but i may just take a few nights off and take everything down to my mom's and use her garage and driveway (its bigger, empty 2 car vs my 1 car with my girl's camry in it), her dishwashers broken though. good luck, i would plan on getting up early or starting Sat night.

 

i did my timing chain water pump and plenum repair all at once and i never put my engine to top dead center. truck runs fine, and not a single problem with it other than some how getting something in my oil pan causing oil psi problems.
