bobbo... any idea whats under the quickie paint? It looks great, esp for 1200 bones... but I wonder what that paint may be covering.
Also, with the engine sitting like that, the manifolds may well have cracked. The exhaust is taking up a lot of the weight since there is no tranny mount supporing the back, and the manifolds usually crack and even split.
Good excuse for headers... or just run it like that till you install the too new engine. You gonna do a card and an MSD box, or you gonna swap the computer and PITA harness in too? How do you plan on hooking up the speedo and fuel system (if going FI)?
