well for something like that i would suggest finding someone on the .org that has one on a junked VE motor. i don't think aaron is selling any VE parts just yet but of course he would have one... cardana24 should have one as well.

i've come across another car tho that would totally fall on its face for no reason while driving, and sometimes took forever to start. we never managed to figure out why it wouldn't start, but whatever it was, it was causing the injectors not to fire. if he's got a multimeter he can hook it up to one of the injector plugs while trying to start the car, to see if he has any voltage.
