Hey bud, call around the wreckers, theres a few 350 TPIs sitting around in the area.
Look in the phone book for Dan Manns wreckers on hwy 5, I know they had 3 last time I checked.

I can see your logic.
When you have to pay sometimes as much as 2x the price for a NEW OE sensor; reman and or "generic" sensors may be a better bet. Either way you are taking a chance.... A used OE MAF....Unless you know from who and where the darn thing is comming from..well you know what I am getting at. Paul, just think of the $ good buick sensors are worth and all the trouble guys get when they either buy used or reman ones.
Rob's looking for a "mint" sensor - I would spend the $ and get a new OE one and be done with the gambl'n.
