I put a new motor in my car, and since it obviously wouldnt have the same VIN# as my car does, how could I go about checking to see if the fix has been done on this motor?

just put your old intake on it and your done. If you swapped another engine into a fixed car the ecm is the same, exhaust is the same, only thing that changed was in the intake.

Thats the problem i had to give them the old motor when i purchased this new one, and I bought the car used, so I dont know if that motor had the fix on it either. I'm not worried about the c/b because the car has a c/b bassani exhaust. I was just wanting to find out if the intake problem had been fixed on this motor, or for that matter, the old one too lol

As i understood the fix was basically an extrude hone job on stock manifold, If the "new" motor came out of 01 cobra or late 99 production it should be fixed How does it feel when you step on the gas? I really didnt notice any power gains when i had my fix done. It was basically a free tank of gas and car wash for me I can see if the guys at KrazyKoncepts still have my fixed intake laying around, if so they could probabaly sell it to you cheap. But i doubt you'll even know the difference
