I swear! If I did not have bad luck I would have no luck at all. So I bought a used intake plentium and engine head all in one piece quite a while ago with the intention of cleaning it up and selling it for a bit more than I paid. Anyway I wanted to polish up the plentium get it ready for sale and this is what I find once I take it apart. Anyway I don't think this thing is usable anymore...what do you guys think?
Top Half
Bottom Half
And this is the only spot where I could tell where it got hit. Likely in shipping.

Tim I could have gotten larger pics .....Yea I think I'll do like you say and cut my losses. I only paid $75 shipped for the entire top end shipped. Only thing it did not come with was the cam gears.

yea.. NO WELDING! you'd pay as much if not more than the manifold for the welding becuase its aluminum. i had to pay 60.00 when i blew thru my manifold trying to make the inlet a true 60mm for my TB

just to let you know, it's an intake plenum, not a plentium. To get back to the topic, I would agree with just finding another one. They're around for pretty cheap.
She's been sold My best friend bought her though, so she's still in good hands.

oops!
As for fixing this, *shrug* I might polish it up to 'hone' my mad polishing skills (j/k). Bryan if you want it its yours for free! I'll bring it with me when I come over there in the next month or 2.
