Manifold malfunction, part question...
Hi All,
I bought a 2003 Corvette LS-1 off E-Bay last summer and finally got around to giving it a thorough once-over. Found the A/C compressor housing cracked and the intake manifold to be busted in the rear!
What is this fitting/sensor unit and could one do without it? Do you think the manifold is saleable like this? What would it be worth? Could it be patched with a plate epoxied over it?
Also, what is the plug in the bottom pic? I'm ASSuming a block drain plug...
Thanks!
Russ

I'm gonna use a Victor JR on this motor so it doesn't really matter, was just hoping to sell the leftover parts. I may try to "glue" a piece of 1/4" alum plate over the damage using some 3M 8815 body panel adhesive as it's a flat area. If I can make the MAP fit into it... Ya'll don't think it's worth anything?
