Coyote crate motor intake parts - all recycling?

[JohnK]

I'm assuming that, other than pulling out the MAF sensor from the one part, there's no use for any of the plastic intake parts that come with the Ford Performance coyote package. Has anyone been able to sell any of these or do they all essentially end up in the recycling bin?

Recyle. Sadly. I've tried to sell numerous leftover Mustang/Coyote parts. Intake, IRS pallet parts, flywheel, header, etc. With little/no luck. Barely covered shipping costs with those couple items that did sell for no reserve on eBay. Zero interest on Craigslist which I don't like to use anyway. People who are buying stuff are buying upgraded aftermarket stuff. Not the OE parts. That's been my experience anyway.

Thanks. Unfortunately, that's what I suspected. I didn't do a thorough search but I did search eBay for the P/N for the main intake piece (the one that the MAF sensor is attached to). They're selling for $24 + $57 shipping. Seems hardly worth even the effort to box them up to ship them. Not sure why those are even included with the crate motors.

I gave mine to a friend who owns a body shop....figured it will not be long until he needs to fix the front end of a mustang.

That's a great idea. I've got a buddy that has a body shop. I'll ask him if he's interested in any of this stuff. Happy to give it to him for free rather than throw it away.

it's amazing what people will buy nowadays, I sold my IRS wheels studs for $40 on ebay!
