I also put an old sheet under the car after it was drained (anti freeze) so to catch anything that fell under the car . I also took a cardboard box and drew an intake manifold on it (real ugly ... I won't become an artist anytime soon ;) ) and put the bolts in the respective holes . remember there is an exhaust tube behind the intake (rear) . hope these tips help ... 9SECONDLX 12-09-2002, 06:12 PM he is on the othersie of spfld. westfield. he is off exit 4 i believe near westfield. from boston its an hour 10 minutes down the highway. he might beable to do it in one day if you go early on a saturday. if you do it yourself just make sure you do it some where warm so everything will dry..... | ||
