Hunter, be ready to do some fitting with this POS. I helped a buddy and 1) bolt holes do not line up and need reaming, 2) the diverter needs trimming to allow gasket to seal properly.
There was a thread a week or two ago about by SHunter05 I believe. Good reading.

Well crap. Change this to looking for a normal housing that is this style. Mine has too many outlets for the headers I'm going to run.

Or with the motor out it would be an easy job to get it to fit correctly, as long as you know ahead what to expect and is needed to correct.

Sick stinger is checking his piles. Thanks for that info speedy. You guys dont see me having any sort of circulation issues using this do you? I am running a team g intake with no water crossover on the rear.
