Just like the title says

The pictures were down over at v8sho.com...

Where is a place to get one new for cheap? Any auto (autozone?) retailers and part numbers?

Thanks!

It is sensor A, Bank 1 if that matters.

If your talking about the cam position sensor, i just replaced mine today.
However, it didnt fix my problem, so i assume its good. Since i only paid $15 for it i didnt plan on putting the old one back in and returning it. If you want, ill give you my old one and send it your way free of charge.

It might not be new, but its easy to change if you ever need to do it again (i think it took me 60-90 seconds). I dont see why it wouldnt last a fair amount of time.
