[QUOTE="scottydsntknow, post: 15968166, member: 79824"] 1- They all warp eventually where the crossover attaches to the plastic. So never buy a used plastic intake. Its not mileage that does it but heat and time. I mean if the seller can get you a dead nuts visible picture of both coolant passages where the plastic is totally flush and not warping at all or you can see it in person then maybe... Honestly, just buy a new one from LMR or don't bother. Or maybe even find a used Pro Products all metal one on FB for sale groups. I've found them for cheaper than new plastic intakes multiple times. Don't buy the Dorman from Rockauto. And yes you do have time to drill and tap. Wth, you have time to do a whole intake swap but not 10-15 minutes to drill a 9/16 hole and tap it? Ok... 2- It should but if not you don't even need that bracket, the 2 bolts that hold the alt to the block are more than enough. 3- Use "The Right Stuff" gasket maker, you can find it at any autozone/advance/napa. ONLY put it on the areas that need extra sealant where the coolant passages are. NEVER put RTV on gaskets in other locations, you'll **** something up. This is not a pushrod with paper/cork gaskets. 4- Yes, its the same 5- Yes, its the same Extra credit - PI cam swap is something else to look into. Or even aftermarket if you have the money. NPI heads are actually really good heads, the power loss is ass cams and ass intake. You swap just to PI cams and PI intake and you are 5-10hp under a normal PI engine.
