Nice, I have an older KB with stock lower manifold, wish I had that air
bypass that you have on yours.
I bought my early (before Blow/flowzilla) at a garage that salvaged cars
from Houston racetrack, simple to put one, got some small missing parts form
KB, and it has work extremely well for over 10 years now, no problem at all,
8# boost. That is a good price too.
