Hey all, i've had my engine taken somewhat apart all winter now because i'm putting in a new water pump and working on my fuel injection. anyway, i had my dirty old manifold at a local engine shop for restoration. they soaked it in a chemical bath, baked it, glass-beaded it, then painted it. i have uploaded pictures of it to the yahoogroups photo album under the folder 'intake manifold'. let me know what you think of it!
