Just FYI (A Small Rant)

Mine actually looks quite good. Far, far better than the Chinese Typhoons that I've seen and on par with the American stuff.
The issues I had were with the bolt kit. The TB bolts were too long (made to use with an EGR spacer which the Cobra intake doesn't require). Also the vacuum tee that came with it was hard brittle plastic... I broke it and had to go buy some vacuum tee's. The EGR bolt holes were tapped wrong and I had to make a couple of new studs... no biggie really except it was an extra trip to the hardware store.
Overall fit and finish looked great though. All the ports and bolt holes lined up nicely. It sucks that it was made by communist slaves but it was a bargain at $350. I hindsight had I known I probably would have bought an Edelbrock made in USA since with the $140 port work I have $500 in mine anyway.
