I bought 2 singles on ebay. 1 for $150 and 1 for $120. They are both dirty, but look good. I figire I can sell off the intakes.
They are another step in my 200HP budget build!

Lol, yea I will start a thread when I get more parts rounded up, I have a lot of key components and have spent very little. I thinking I can do something in the 175-200 flywheel horse for $2500 or less, by shopping classifieds and ebay for high quality parts at a steal.

Will the throttle shaft be long enough to put the linkage parts on the other side?
