If not then ,I will just take out the Intake Manifold on the other engine I had just completed since it already has the ports for nitrous under every runner.
t I really like the looks of nitrous hard lines. It makes the engine bay look intimidating

For these intakes , regardless if it is original or knock off, it is better to get the runner be welded to the plenum to avoid leaks at high boost.

Haven't work on my toys lately but am always on the hunt for some bargain stuff.
Someone mentioned to me a 2jzgte VVTi in the middle of nowhere that had been sitting on a pallet for 4 years under a tarp with a plywood on top . I was told anyone who brings $500 , they can come with a truck and it would be loaded by a forklift so off I go in the next 10 minutes to check it out.
These where the pictures sent to me. I believe this is worth it if true .. I am changing a bit on my Black Pearl Setup. Since it will be a street car , I would like to use a built VVTi head instead of the non VVTi with the 3.4 stroker , 10:1 compression engine with V160 , ProEFI . Torque down low and spool will be great together with the new PT6870 and QSV , it should be a perfect road warrior in a sleeper form.
I will keep my fingers crossed , hoping I am bringing it home today

definitely worth it... I thought , looking at the pictures sent to me, it was soaked wet having only a tarp / plywood on top and exposed to the elements of nature for the past 4 years.
apparently it was well covered... the only thing that had surface rusts was the flex plate and part of the bell housing that should clean up well easily. I took out the coil / plug cover. It was dry on the galley and no signs of having been wet. Even turbo areas have no sign or real rusts.
heading back home with it.....
$500 ??? heck, that is just the cost of a 2jzgte head.
