Working and available!

This product fits and performs exactly as it should and is a very affordable alternative to other options on the market. Remember that standard heat shields cannot be reinstalled as this unit does not come with all of the small screws needed to reattach all of the heat shields. I used a DEI manifold wrap kit and products required for installation and recommend purchasing and have had no heat transfer issues (less efficient engine or air conditioning cooling system) after removing the heat shield. You will also need a Fel-Pro MS95088 Manifold Kit (or equivalent) and a triangular flange gasket for installation. Another thing to consider is removing the wide washers that the stock O2 sensors have. I cut them off to fit properly and used an anti-seize to put them back in place. There are no leaks. I would suggest that you apply anti-seize to the threads of the original plug and reinstall it so it doesn't leak either. In the end I am very satisfied and very happy that I saved an additional $400.
