Mic,
There would not be many here in Australia, even less so 2nd hand. The freight would not be that dear from the US, just go USPS, 7-10 days international. Daniel |

essentially its not that hard to swap intake manifolds, the only tricky part with this setup will be for a replacement in an AU to setup all the vacuume lines that are required, such as brake booster, etc etc
i have chosen the Box Type R setup due to the new setup i am going to run, however there are more straight forward replacement manifolds for the current AU setup (TFS-51511003):  cheers Mic

Freight is reasonable from the states if it is sent via usps (7-10 days usually). Remember if the weight goes up too much they wont carry it... and we might need to send in seperate boxes, also got to stick under $1000 or get stung gst.
I so want to order a set of alloy heads for the chev whilst the dollar is so good, but i gotta get it on the road first. Mic - PM me when you got the money spare and we'll get this order going...
