Now im real curious to see my fitment. The throttle body cable moves up and down easily? I will look closer after work, maybe mine is bent? I picked up the manifold off the cars previous owner who gave up on engine removal and f'd up something he shouldn't have. He was literally taking the engine apart piece by piece to remove it from car.

I'll let you know in a few.

Tomas yeah better pics would be great! I do not wanna run the non rr cover lol. Also with the roller rocker if I planned on parting it out and swapping a whole new motor in id take the lowport intake manifold off first too. For two reasons: one id sell the manifold seperate from tue motor if I had to and two its easier to pull tue motor since you have waaay more places to bolt a chain. Same thing with the exhaust manifold

Tomas, does your lowport TB have the cruise control drum on it? I didn't read all your posts...

I dont know much about lowports. Are the low port and high port throttle bodys the same? Are parts interchangeable or do I need to go get a low port body?

Pics as requested. Mine is really close, but still fits and works fine. I am using stock gastkets and all. Am I missing something from mine? Cruise control works and all.

Tomas, have you ever removed or install the valve cover with your TB installed, or do you have to remove the TB every time?

Johnny, the highport TB will bolt up. The vacuum provisions and water pipes might be in slightly different positions, but they are mostly interchangeable from what I've seen.

I have removed and installed it with the TB installed. I was actually comtemplating the p10 valve cover because of the routing of the hoses, but I got that figured out.

The throttle body drum assembly we were dealing with seemed to stick out a tiny bit more, making installation impossible. I don't know what else to say. =/
