    Front seats and carpet

    The China knock off carb intakes can be bought with the injector bosses pre drilled for under 150 these days.... Trick flow is supposed to have the 351 lowers soon for the R uppers but they will probably want 450 plus for just the lower with they way prices been going these days.

    Won't find much on revisions from most companies, there advertising and marketing sucks for stuff like that. but that's an old, really old first gen R egr upper with the 2 bolt bosses running threw the throat, the newer non egr ones are a ton better.
