It is under the intake manifold. Do a search and there are plenty of step by step instructions to DIY. Mine is going in the shop tomorrow.

A forum member (pyro1) and I swapped mine out a few months ago. I have no mechanical ability whatsoever and we managed to get it done... From what I heard here on the forum it was like a $400 or $500 dollar job for a $30.00 part...
Easy fix though... Great instructions here on the forum...

Shouldn't take you more than an hour. When you are moving the intake forward MAKE SURE you don't drag it forward. Pick it up. There is a lot of sand and crap under it that you do not want to drag into the heads.
