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!

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.
