I can't remember his name either but think his wife actually sells them. They come with plenum pan bolts, but you'll have to buy new manifold bolts and an intake manifold gasket set at an auto parts store.

woops, just took another look, ended July 23, '13. Might be SOL except for Hughes.
Thank you for that info!.

1999BlkDakRT is the seller... http://www.ebay.com/usr/1999blkdakrt

I bought mine from him in January, so I know he had some then.

I got that and the Dorman kit off rock auto, which came with all bolts, gaskets, bypass hose, and thermostat.

All said and done, I saved myself $30 or so and supported a fellow forum member.

Hmm, Did the test and here is the video:


Did this , as curios about it ...

It was at "0" in the middle and then i start the truck up and it started to go up little by little
to the right .

Truck was warmed up and normal running temperature,and the test was done at idle.
I did let it run for about 30-45 sec. during the test.

Pressure should climb a bit with the engine running. That's normal. just don't wanna let it get too high. Blows out gaskets.
