I bought a CETA rear fill from them a few of weeks ago. They took a while to ship it but I got a good deal and it was brand new!

That guy is selling them for $279 but then to make up the price he is charging $48 for shipping and insurance. That works out to about the same price that others on ebay are selling them for. The $279 seems cheap to attract people or hope that they dont notice the insainely high shipping.

don't know how to do the link thing. just go on ebaymotors.com and do a search in car and truck parts, then a search for ls6 intake and it should come up. it only has like 2 days left on it.

I hate taking a chance on Ebay with buying anything. I would rather buy from a sponser. Texas Speed has them for $360.00

GMpartsdirect charges a TON for shipping also. Support our sponsors! Scoggin-Dickey Parts Center is our official GM parts supplier, and many of our vendors sell these intakes.

Texas speed looks like the way to go.

Sure, they will get cheaper, eventually everything will get cheaper. But if we always waited for the next big thing to come along, we'd never do anything to our cars.

I mean, LS2 blocks, LSx intake, LS2 intake/tb, etc.

If the sponsors of this site price match, then of course I'd choose them. But if I can find a better deal elsewhere, you can bet they'll get my $$$.

i'll gladly spend an extra $20 or whatever and buy from a sponsor. they are someone you feel safe with, and will give you what you paid for. YOU DON'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT GETTING SCAMMED! not to mention they support this site, which is what helps everyone learn what mods are good and what mods arn't good. that alone is reason enough to send them my money

wel, it's that attitude that will doom us all. Stick with people who stand behind what tehy sell, and excel at customer service. Why don't see what gmpartsdirect wants for shipping? I't prolly more than that dude's $48. Sponsors make this board happen, and make the performance get better and better. Sure it wouldn't happen without us, but if ALL heads were still $2500+ and LS6 intakes were still $600+ not that many people would have them!
