Default Are these real LSX inatake gaskets???

Don't know if this link works it's from e-bay. Did a search for LS6 intake and at the bottom of the page in the ebay stores a vendor has these.

I noticed that the closeup of the package says ford motor co.???????

last time I checked a Lincoln is not a LS6. Maybe you should re-read the tilte . It's not a stupid question.

Is this for one or all eight! When I did a search with the same part # I got $29.99.... still much better.

Is that an old link???

Thanks

thats all eight.
nope its current i just looked it up.
When dealing with autozone i always use 98 Camaro V8 for any LS1 parts. cause they won't have a part for a '02 but they will for a '98. eveb though its the same part.

I understand that and did read that it says LS6- but it also says Lincoln all over the place AND the packages say Ford... Never said it was a stupid question, just all the evidence points to the wrong part . Besides, you can tell by looking at them that they are wrong- look where the "hump" is for the injector boss- that would be the side of an LSX port.

Edit- Read this- http://www.prnewswire.co.uk/cgi/news/release?id=19204 LS6 is a model. I knew the LS was, but they apparently use 6 or 8 for the V6 or V8 cars.

Nope, but they are re-usable. Should be replaced depending on how old they are or if damaged.

Don't know how ya found the felpro ones at autozone for $16.99, I tried to order and it had me re-search for the part# and it comes up $29.99. I called the autozone around the corner and they said they could have 'em in a day or two, same part # $29.99. I'm gonna get 'em. Waaaay better than $73.37 from my local GM dealer!!!! Thank YOU!!!

Good lookin' out on the LS6/LS8 Ford **** , I just saw LS6 and for that price my eyes were popping out of socket!
