You have no worries

You might encounter the problem of hood clearance over the heads on the V8. Im not really too familiar with the clearance and routing on the V6 engines but on the 94-95 V8 engines the intake is routed directly over the heads through the "violin case" box. I have yet to find anybody that makes a repacement intake for the 94-95 V8. If the intake you have doesnt fit you can port the violin case or you can use a civic intake tube. The civic tube DOES work I have it on my car.

Sounds pretty much like a coincidence that 2 weeks after they go. Could of just been its time. how many miles? was the coolant flushed oftenly?
