Replacing Intake Manifold

Replacing Intake Manifold
On a difficulty scale, what would you give this? I dremeled + JB welded a previous crack, now theres a ****ing HOLE with a steady stream of coolant spraying out.
I need to replace this asap. I will buy the manifold online, but just curious if anyone has tackled this project themselves.
Thanks..

I just bought the improved manifold off 50resto.com

$189
Requires a new alternator bracket = $11
$216 and change w/tax

RE: Replacing Intake Manifold
i had a shop do mine, cost 200$ labor , manifold was around 200$ and then i needed new plugs/wires/bolts/gaskets etc and some new coolant total was around 500$. i couldnt do mine myself, it was during middle of winter. its a relatively big job, and time consuming but id definetly have tried it myself if it were warmer at the time. goodluck!

RE: Replacing Intake Manifold
Personally, I would... While you're in there, get all new gaskets, and any other things (thermostat), that you're going to remove and will be inexpensive anyway..
I don't believe in overkill... It doesn't hurt to replace older items with newer items, even if they don't add HP/TQ...
Just remember, if you need some help, ask someone on here, or check the manual...
