Junkyard today. Good find. Had to pull a new rad bracket. Found one with an oil cooler attached. I don't think it was factory as it ran through the radiator and into the cooler. Also found a new grille bracket all for 70$. Anyone have a good website for a black grille not sport. The one I ebayed was cheap and broke already
LMC but you'll get the same thing you got from eBay. Crappy plastic that is gonna break if you aren't careful, but at 4x the cost. I hit the junkyard today as well. Got tb to modify and better yet a set of factory tow hooks and brackets. Gotta go back another day, there's another truck with a set as well that I'm gonna pull
Well it broke as the holes didn't properly line up on the eBay grill. I may order from summit so I can return if it's crap. And I found a truck here 2001 with red fuel injectors and an aftermarket rail. Almost pulled but the injectors were a different connector... Also one truck had seemingly new heads that I want to go back and look at... Not very promising as factory exhaust but had exhaust gasket as well as new valve cover gaskets.

Yeah my grille didn't either but if you're careful and take your time you can get it. Was a PITA though. I have a 2001 and stock injectors are red. 19 or 21lb, can't remember. Connectors are EV6 to your EV1, can actually get adapters but you wouldn't really notice anything different, would just be out money. I'd like to see this aftermarket rail though. New heads, if aftermarket, would be a steal if you could snag em.
Cool. And one other question. How could I tell if a set of heads are factory or not? I'm going back to the junkyard next Saturday to check a set of new heads. I can tell they are new as they are clean and painted black with exhaust gaskets and new valve cover gaskets. I'm just curious how to know if they are worth pulling
