bob and Jason R: theres a junk yard i used to go to on a regular basis up in MD. its called crazy rays auto parts. the had some pretty decent stuff up there. and the prices were good. one of the guys up there charged me only $30 for a intake manifold that still have stuff on it that was about $20 a piece. he said "if you aint see nothing, niether did i." lol.
TheMuffenMan: keep me posted. ill have some money at the end of the month. i just might get it fomr you as long as its in good condition
To everyone: when i take my trip up there at the end of the month, ill be sure to take my cam out there and take pics of anything that might be of interest to everyone up here. but you had better hurry. i doubt that the parts would be up there for long.
