Swing by Liberty Pull-A-Part here in town and get one. lol I bought my airbox from them for like $5. Let me know if u need any help with the harmonic balancer. It's kinda a pain. GL man
Ya figured I should go ahead and get one and ya I already got the harmonic balancer in
It wasn't too bad took about an hour and a half
