finally got the performance products elbow to fit with some beating and banging but overall everything fit including egr and the quality of the elbow is superb

I'm sorry I didn't follow up here... one of the holes on my elbow [edelbrock] was threaded so I had to make a stud and thread a nut onto it slowly as I let it settle into place. the other three were simple. to make matters worse, it was the hole under the elbow [closest to the IAC valve] that was the problem.... I'm glad to hear you got it all together finally!!!

Does it all just bolt on pretty much no other changes needed? I am planning on buying one here soon and just wondering what i need to prepare myself for when i get it
