I need to replace it asap. What/how should I go about fixing the situation? Never done it before, and i gotta be on a budget. Any websites that show you how to do it? Thanks

then it a simple swap. pick up another intake and get the improved version with the aluminum coolant crossover and pick up a haynes repair manual. Also you could try searching over on Modular Depot forums for install tips. You can also scan through this guys write up although this is for a PI intake replacing an NPI intake but you'll get the removal how to then retrace those steps..

thats still going through appeals etc, so he'll have to change it and be reimbursed..or he could pay ford and be reimbursed..kind of a personal preference i guess.

this is a settlement, not a conviction. Ford and the lawyers both agreed to the terms. it's up to the courts to give final approval. there is no appeal process in this case.
