I also noticed some coolant on my engine and i took into the dealership and they said they would replace it no questions asked for free. My question is.. are they going to give me the intake made in 96 or are they going to give me the new and improved intake. If it is an intake made for 99 up cars will they have to give me new heads that will match that intake?

You are going to get a 'new and improved' intake that works with your heads. Nice try getting a free headswap out of them.

Whats improved about the 99 intake compared to the 96?

the 99 intake has rectangular ports while the 96-98 intake has rounded. the 99 will only mate to the power improved heads. The 99 and up intake and head combo is a lot better.

What is the dealership going to give you? More than likely a hard time!
