    Back again looking for yet another part.

    I bought this '99 GTP and knew the rear valve cover gasket needed changed.
    And at the time, what I thought was the coupler to the supercharger, turned out to be a bearing.

    Progress so far.
    Received useable snout with good bearing (Thanks DanGTP!), front and rear valve covers changed.

    I noticed I did not have an updated LIM gasket so I figured I was digging this far, might as well do that too.
    Finally got the intake off today only to find some disturbing news:

    The coolant port that should be blocked by shiny metal has been eaten (no pun) away.

    A few cheap options have been suggested. JB Weld that and file flat, or grind some more away and weld it then file flat.
    I'm not too thrilled with either option, I'd like to just have a correct casting from the get go.

    So I need a lower intake manifold that does not have this issue (or any others)
    Let me know your shipped price to 88310. Preferable UPS since I find their heavier packages are cheaper to ship.
