Very cool, same P/N as mine.  I think it looks to have the intake runners
sleeved as well, like mine.  Wait, let me check... phew, yes, mine is still
on my engine!

Quick update:  Had a good year with the car, but in early August the engine
ran low on oil pressure and I shut it down.  I pulled the oil pump and found
evidence of shot peen damage once again.  So, out comes the motor and I will
inspect all the bearings and crank and then decide what to do about it.
It's hard as hell to clean that crap out of the motor.  The block has some
very nice mods to it.  Hate to toss it, but we'll see.  I can't afford
multiple motor years like this.
