I started watching a video on how to do it and I had to stop when he called the evap an egr twice. This was a video from A1 Auto btw. They didn't even do the recommended fix in the tech service bulletin either.
I've done an intake on an LS motor once, zero corrosion on any of the connections or sensors. My boss told me to check them though, since it's a common problem. I put a ton of dielectric grease on the electrical contacts and the little sealing part that goes over it. Idk how water gets in there lol
Easy job though.
Oh IK. I thought you were talking about a GP but when I saw the picture I knew it wasnt for a 3800Quote:

Which ones? The squares?
Yeah. Stock ones were torn.
We should start one. I know a lot, but Jeff knows a lot more about car audio stuff. I haven't really dabbled with that stuff much since the wife\kids came into the picture.Quote:

First read I thought this said "We do..." so I went and looked in the audio forum. What a goof, eh? All my GPs need audio love, esp the large.Quote:

She turned out to be much prettier than expected, so she took me out for a celebratory drink afterwards and made me dinner :) t'was a good day!
Bought it some front inlays.

New pump in, running once again. Last thing I did before pump died was put new front header gasket to fix leak. Started car and was listening to see if the leak was still there, 2 minutes later pump died. So anyways, now I know THAT leak is fixed, but still have a small one at crossover...sheesh. About ready to weld crossover as it sits. Next time I take it off I'll just have to saw it off and throw these headers in the trash where they belong lol.
Walked out to start it... dead battery. Then I got in my SRT8 and went to work.

To match the back. Now all I need is to clean out the inside, put in the motor and strut mount. Then time to sell. Its time for me to leave the platform.Quote:

Today's find is black with light damage and fading but no ripped mounts and torn face like what they both have.
