thanks guys. Fit up will be within the next week. I'm still hoping for 1 more nice day to finish the supercar f1's off. hehe. If that happens I better have a ------- video camera!

Compactness is key. I can change my spark plugs with my downpipe still hooked up(which is the plan and should happen).

you can just drill the holes for the manifold bolts progressively larger (from the center out) All the expansion slots do is keep the heads of the bolts from shearing off.
