current motor has around 250k but has been well maintained since I’ve had it cylinder walls aren’t scarred up she’s just a little tired previous owner liked to romp on it

Machine guy caught the Rona while he had my block, finally got back to me though and I should be moving along shortly after still looking for a new intake manifold the one I have now is a FB5E-9424-8A or BA possibly it’s hard to tell also every intake I come across Is for the 4.6 but look identical to mine what out there for aftermarket? I need options
