doing some mantinance, decide a hp boost was needed

[powerstrokenstang]

So im doing valve cover gaskets, valley pan, top rad hose and ccv. ccv involved pullin intake and replacing rear cover because of the way hoses had cracked and such. Decided while I was in there I may as well order an m62/60 intake manifold. I post up any noticeable change.

Very interested in your results & the correct part number of the IM.

lol I hope its correct anyway.. ebay special. from my short research m60b40 and all m62 that are not m62tu are the desired ones. hopefully its a decent upgrade, it was cheap and the 540 guys seem to love the swap. don't see many x guys doing it. some claim a lil low end lose but with 4.10 gears in the x I cant see it mattering. lol jus don't tell the wife as its her car I just have to work on it.
