Default PICS!!!!!! Edelbrock install

ok so i have installed my Edelbrock intake manifold yesterday! (ill get pics up) took for ever, the scraping of the old intake gasket was long and tedious...MAKE SURE you get a throttlebody gasket because NO ONE around me (NY) has them in stock so make sure you get one ordered(i was an idiot) i ended up having to make one. MAKE SURE you have the edelbrock supplied throttle cable bracket...Stock one WONT work...today i called them up and they are sending me one for free BUT i needed it overnighted so its $25 cause its coming from california...Edelbrock has great Customer service....overall it was the biggest pain in the *** part to install so far....it looks so good in the engine bay!
O and i cracked my feul filter getting the lines off so thats $20

Make sure you have everything first! Obviously lol

Yeah, installing that intake manifold was a pita during my turbo installation[&:] Was your gasket all burn up and stuck to the block?? I guess i was lucky that my local auto stores had the throttle gasket in stock. About the cable throttle body bracket, i just used the stock one.
