Speaking of, I found out that my nasty vacuum leak is at #2 intake runner. Gonna try and fix that today when the motor cools off

not sure at this point. it took all of 5 min to swap it out. sounded much better than trying to diagnose it when its a degree outside. i look at it....later. ill probly keep it for when/if i build a stroker for sure tho(which will hope fully be sooner than later,or maybe a 5.3l swap if i get to move where i want to)
