I did use my old intake since it was preped already, and I had to pirate one of the rear cam covers off my other motors (cover @ the right or the pic is backwards) to achieve the look..
On the trany issue I have found over all the research I've done on this particular engine, that it is unwise to put any manual trans next to this engine that is'nt a Muncie..
so what application did the m19 come in?Quote:

thats basically how the citation was...that sumbitch sat for a few years....put a fresh battery on it and dumped some gas in the carb and it busted right off
:werd: them things never seem to die.. Tho the Citation was one of GM's biggest blunders from the 80's..Quote:
