Default Obscenely cheap top swap ideas

Sorry I've been inactive for so long, been having some major financial issues but things are gonna be smooth quite for some time now so i got plenty of time to fix up my monte! On to the point, I've been thinking of easier/cheaper/ghetto ways to do a top swap.

The first of which is to modify an L67 LIM and add injector bungs just like ZZP's ss m90 LIM. - Ported & Machined Lower Intake #

Second idea is to do away with the vacuum bypass on the m90, and instead have it piggy back off of the throttle cable so it only opens when i need it. I figure without the extra vacuum line it should be easier to tune the pcm myself.

The third and probably least possible idea is instead of taking all the pieces to run a seperate belt for the m90, try to modify the snout or LIM to line up the pulley with my existing ones and just run a longer belt. This probably wont be necessary, the pick a aprt yard in town is always full of GTP's and has some good prices

And to top it all off Im thinking of trying to make my own adapter for a N* TB, i got plenty of scrap metal, some grinders, welders, and an oxy/acetylene torch.

I've got a few more ideas cooking but I'll let you guys shoot these down or help before i throw more at you.

Oh and before you ask, yes I'm an idiot.
