i loved the car the way it was, but much props for the work you putting in, just take your time putting everything back together, you do not want to have to track down a short after you do an intense tuck,

ahora no va a ser un huevo caliente sino un huevo hervido

The gold overspray on everything ruined the car for me, glad to see it being addressed.

Good luck with the 'build'

okay dude i thought you were asking if i need a half one. lol and yes a half one is needed full will not fit.

Black4DrEK
03-05-2011, 11:21 AM
Damn.. I might just get the other header. So I can use my Full radiator.

big mac
03-05-2011, 11:32 AM
idk man i love the header i think its worth the trade off

Black4DrEK
03-05-2011, 11:34 AM
Yea. But you can Get a Tri Y one. and keep the Full radiator.

Im pretty sure both make around the same power.

big mac
03-05-2011, 11:37 AM
these made 5more hp than a set of tri y on same dyno. but i guess its just a personal opinion
