01 Lower Manifold?

Before I start polishing a 01 Lower Manifold (thanks to RobG), will it bolt to my 99 with no problem.

I do know my poilshed blower will have to have 3 holes plugged and another 3 new holes drilled to match to the mid plate/upper manifold.

It'll bolt right up dude. The big difference is on the supercharger to midplate bolt pattern. And you'll also have to lengthen the AIT sensor harness because it gets moved from the old driver's side position to the new passanger side.

I'm assuming the package arrived A-OK

Yes, and thanks for the hook-up!
I am never gonna finish my wheels now!

Thought I could just swtich out the midplate.... but looks like the bolts that hold the SC to the midplate also go into the lower manifold.

Yep, make sure you get the new metal gasket for the '01 style too. You can use it for a teplate for drilling the holes in the blower. No need to plug the unused holes either, unless your just a neat freak.

I am a freak, so the holes will be plugged on the blower and ground smooth.
Thanks for the input on the metal gasket... do you know the part number?

Does anyone know the part numbers for all the screws I will need to install:
4 Bolts for attaching TB to Plenum
6 Bolts for Plenum to S/C
8 Bolts for Supercharger to Manifold
and Bolts to attach lower manifold to Engine.

Want to ceramic coat ALL the bolts so they don't have that nasty yellow look.
