Like the home made stainless manifold, quite a feat of engineering!
Did you get that high flow cylinder head btw? And have you had No.2 on the dyno since the engine mods? I'd be interested to know what difference they've made over standard.
Still filling and sanding mine ready for paint. Shouldn't be too long now before I'm on the road though...
