Very impressive. Love the way the whole package looks, and it sounds great. Those headers look fantastic. Thanks for posting the video. Perhaps a tripod would make a nice gift on your sons next birthday!

Re: Project 327 Hotrod Rebuild Complete
Sicboy, did Brockman treat you right on the mufflers ? I've heard a few soundbites over on the HAMB of them and have considered ordering a pair for my junk.

Re: Project 327 Hotrod Rebuild Complete
