The map sensor can connect with a piece of tubing from a nipple on the manifold.

I'm subsrcibed too. would like to see how its done before I make the swap...I figure this is the way to go since the fast anifolds are 2x as expensive and don't even flow as well.

Also, you said high CR 5.3 and you also said stock top end Does that mean milled stock heads? Just asking.
