Plenum plate question!
#13
Just to throw a wrench in it. The Hughes kit comes with, aluminum plenum plate, plenum bolts, plenum gasket (not the cheap cork kind) new manifold (kegger) bolts, which old ones should not be used, thermostat + gasket, bypass hose, manifold gaskets, throttle body gasket, all for $119. I say that's a good deal. I just did mine less than a month ago.
Reading that EBay add, it states, recommend a felpro manifold gasket set for $25, total investment $90. Still need manifold bolts which are torque to yield (one time use) bypass hose which 90% of the time will get ruined taking old one off, if its old. Does the manifold gasket set come with throttle body and thermostat set?
Not trying to discourage you from buying the eBay one. Just trying to save you trips to the parts house or dealership, for items you may not be aware of that you needed.

I've been married a long time, and I say you just crapped in your corn flakes. She'll bring it up 20 years from now.
