plan to. but by the time i need larger injectors ill need more then 24's. after a set of gt40's the plan is for an S-trim( probaly this time next year though, itll be a whole ). with stock cam. be enough power to have fun a turn some respectable numbers. and kill the aod

edit: my buddy also got an Alum driveshaft (17.99) at the junkyard. there was a 2wd aerostar there that has an alum driveshaft too which confussed me becasue i thought only the AWD ones got the alum driveshafts

Wow, does this junk yard just give stuff away? The yard I used to go to would have asked for more money from a rear view mirror.

Why don't you want the Ps? I've heard they do every bit as good as the old GT-40s.

it must be one of those non-profit yards. Barrack said to re distribute the wealth so that even 16 y/o kids can afford go fast parts. now that ryan has free performance parts he can sell them on the street for a premium thus funneling money back into the economy as he goes to the store to buy more fruit snacks. Its pure genius I say. Ryan your president and your local fruit snack vendor want to thank you.

Haha, yea, so now the money goes to the overseas candy makers and the hard working Americans at the salvage yard get the shaft.

The more I think about it, you could probably get 27$ out of that intake in its weight in aluminum alone. Aside from how much work its going to need to look good, that is seriously a steal.

If you're going to blast it, make SURE to clean it thoroughly before and after. You don't want any of that stuff staying in there and finding its way down into your engine down the road.

I thought there were some cheap yards around here, if you strip the part down enough to where guy doesn't know what it is then its $2 or $6 dollars.
I've been keeping an eye out for an AWD driveshaft but theyre all 2WD... I want my 16 dollar driveshaft.

After I got my intake blasted it took it to one of those $1 powerwash places and cleaned it out.

na man. hook up a vac line to a bag of sand and let it suck it through it while the engine is running. thats how you get a good port job done.
