Most of those manifolds they claim to be "OEM" on ebay are actually manufactured by a company called Dorman and they are not good quality.
Rule number #1: DO NOT BUY CAR PARTS OFF EBAY!!
Now, now... Not everything on ebay is tainted. I shouldn't take for granted that everyone will shop the same way I do when I suggest ebay. I actually bought my NPI intake with aluminum crossover, used from an individual guy like ourselves that I had communication with. Ebay can be a great place to find deals, but deffinitely watch for wolves in sheep's clothing. The intake I bought was a better deal than my Ford hookup.
I did the intake swap 99.8% by myself and it wasn't difficult at all. There seemed to be more junk in the way than I remember on my 5.0's and it took me longer than I thought it would to get it off, but I'm very meticulous and over-cautious. You don't even need a Haynes book or anything. And those gaskets with the pegs on them are super easy! haha.
