I'm guessing you spend a lot of your life being flabbergasted. Theorize on why that is, and try to add it up.

Alright so I can see that you do not want to give me your opinion on its condition.

Anyone else want to tell me how you think the condition is?

hmm i see only one troll in here... weird. And for someone with MIT credentials i would have thought you would have calculated pi out a little further.

as far as the intake, its a plastic ls6 intake so 100 bucks shipped is probably the best your gonna do...

The condition is pretty deplorable. You should ask MIT for a refund.

As for the intake, I think it may be cracked:

It was the hose to the pcm right by the front of the intake It was eaten trough or something of that nature an extra 100 dollars you would see if you look at my other parts of history that I was mad because I thought that it didn't hacve the part in question. I am already dealing with this situation. Chalk it up to the auto shop inexperience. There isn't crack though.

I didn't mean pin fool. There is a hose that comes of the front of the intake. Apparently it was cracked and it had to deal with a pcm issue not an intake manifold issue. the hose had to be replaced when it wasn't an intake issue this why I am selling it or else I wouldn't sell it.

Apparently no one else thought of this problem until they took it off and there was no connection with a hose when there should of been.

You can try to tarnish my reputation like I even had any but you trolling me for some reason.

oh so since a hose broke you removed the manifold and are selling it now because there was nothing wrong with it? makes sense..

The only connections every LS1 PCM I've seen were pins. Does your PCM have a vacuum port?

It must be a very happy hose...planning on cleaning it up?

Just so I'm keeping up here...the hose couldn't deal with a PCM issue and cracked? Sounds like an emotionally-fragile hose.

Hey buddy, surgical gender change isn't within the scope of this forum.

This is the problem. I was ill advised. I am getting my refund for the diagnostic. I bought an intake manifold because I thought this was the original problem. It is not. But because they put the manifold on their which cost 2 house of labor I left it because It would of been 4 hours of labor in total to swap it again. Also, I do not want to deal with the refund process. So that was the issue I wouldn't sell something that is damaged. Also, the intake crack forum was to to ask about intake I should get. Thanks to the advisement of other persons they turned a 1400 dollar(ls2) swap into a technically (minus the other parts needed as the manifold was not the problem) 850 dollar swap(ls6).

It was $600 for the ls6 manifold $100 dollars for the additional part $240 for the labor.
does it make better sense?

They ordered it next day the part cost an additional 100 dollars and 1 hour of labor.

I am not trying to troll. I am trying to sell my intake which has no problems to my knowledge and the auto shop's knowledge that actually did the work. They service thousands of car each year.

IF you dont believe me i can post the hose that was replaced.

crainholo keeps posting ill-fated material is trying to get me banned; as he explained to me in his PM when I asked him for his insight regarding the condition of the manifold.

On this forum it is 100-150 dollars less then other forums.

If I do get banned I don't see why as I have corrected my mistakes to abide by the guidelines of the forum.
