Very nice set-up.

This gives me motivation to keep working and saving for my future replacement SR engine for parts to fix or replace the one in now....

Keep it rollin' Jesus

No, you can call and thank Mercedes Benz. Back in the 80's exchange rates made it very profitable to import "grey market" cars from Europe, Mercedes, BMW and Porsche. You buy a car there for 15,000, ship it for 500 and sell it here for 20k because dealers here are charging 30k.

Benz went to congress and argued the price gouging was necessary because of additional safety and environmental testing and millions of people will die each year if people are aloud to keep importing a dozen or so Euro-tuned cars with glass headlights.

Needless to say, they fell for it and thus the 25 year rule was born.

Does your N/A motor intake manifold comes with EGR valve and EGRC-BPT emission components on the back of the manifold? LMK
