good buy? ported and polished

Redfiremustang · July 19th, 2011, 06:18 PM

i found a guy who is selling his stock 3.8L upper intake manifold ( he ported and polished it himself ). for only 70$ and i pay for shipping, i was wondering is this a good deal and what should i look for? i got pictures of it. talked him down to 70$ from 150$, he has had it for a while, doesn't need it since he got a windstar kit installed and he just figured he would just port and polished it. advice welcome.

he says he has over 8 hours of porting and polished. hmm

mustangmike! · July 19th, 2011, 06:48 PM

200 miles on it btw. went with the windstar instead w/ my new cam so I still have it and the bolts somewhere.

Redfiremustang · July 19th, 2011, 06:54 PM

you have that full kit? Yeah man. ill sure buy it from you. how much and find the full kit for me, Lol

2x Gaskets
12x Longer Steel Bolts
Longer Alignment Pins
Anti-Seize compound - i can buy this. no need.. but i would like the rest of it.

mustangmike! · July 19th, 2011, 07:00 PM

alignment pins are a joke., atleast they didn't fit right for me ... so I chunked them. the intake had some pieces that stood up and aligned it anyways ...
But im pretty sure I still have 2 gaskets, and If I can locate the box, ill have the 12 longer bolts.

Redfiremustang · July 19th, 2011, 07:06 PM
