Before replacing the horns: When you press the horn button, do you hear the relay clicking? It is under the hood, should be up near the master cylinders on the drivers side. With the hood open you sh

Jim, As Mike pointed out, not all fuel pumps are rebuildable. Take a look at your pump. Crimped edges, or do you see FOUR screws on the "top hat" and many more down on a ledge below? If there are scr

Sorry, not sure on the shipping. Forward Air is good, but no Canadian locations. If the seller has a commerical account, usually shipping by road freight is reasonable. There is a "engine importer"

I wouldn't recommend doing that for the street. The heated intake manifold helps prevent fuel wetting on the intake walls. Admitted the heated air means something like 3% less performance, but does
