    Pay the $10 for the ZZP set? They're not expensive enough to be worth putting up with sealing some crappy ones.

    HAHAHAHA...youre silly.

    take the EGR and cut the little brackets off the end of the tubes. RTV whatever coin fits well in those, i believe i used a quarter for the LIM one and a nickle for my header one. bolt them suckers back on with a dab more RTV and call it a day.

    block off plates for $0.35. do i get a prize now?

    hey guys my idle still sits abnormally low when im in drive and stopped at a light and if i switch on and off the headlights or turn the wheel (load the PS pump or alternator) my RPMS dip down and cause a close to stall vibration...if i got no vac leak is it a bad ALT or IAC?
