Product Details

The problem - the test - the solution

Remember, to replace these parts, the fuel rail and manifold must be removed from the engine. That is why we include fuel injector seals and intake manifold gaskets. Our full  kit includes the following:

  • Lever and vacuum actuator upgrade with metal parts that replace the original plastic parts
  • Two V8 intake manifold gaskets
  • EIGHT lower fuel injector seals
  • Ball socket linkage removal tool
  • Small synthetic grease to lube ball sockets
  • Small threadlocker to secure lever bolt ( new bolt included)
  • Limited video installation tips. Full instructions are NOT included.

Why are there no complete instructions? Kent decided not to show all the details of removing and reinstalling the manifold, as there are at least half a dozen good videos on YouTube showing the entire process in detail. What Kent will show is how to check your manifold and install the new upgrade while it is on the bench. A few other tips will be included.

R&R of the intake manifold is not difficult. It is just time-consuming because there are so many wiring connections that need to be removed.  But they are "well designed and Murphy-proof," so you will not get confused when you reconnect all the wiring plugs after installing the manifold and fuel rail. 

This is a great upgrade that will give you added reliability and peace of mind.
