Make sure you borrow or buy the special socket (or deep socket) to put it on or you might brake the new one

HA ha, I knew before opening this post,, Dont feel too bad bro there are alot of names on this list,, mines up there too..got my sensor at autozone.
When you put the intake on, Hold it up above the valley, align it the best you can, then slowly let it straight down, if it dont line up ,, LIFT it up and align, NO sliding. Sliding will only get you,,,well,,, you know now..

Since you have the intake off, did you consider the oil pressure sending unit relocation kit in case of future problems with it ?
