thanks
yeah i took it off and stripped all the bolts and brackets off of it. probably 20 min to take off and put on. 3hrs for paint to cure enough to block sand the ecotec on it. simple job just dont be in a hurry when you do it and be careful with your gaskets. I wanted a red close to the old lt4 intakes so i used vht brake paint from autozone. $7.50
