You are a patient man Skipper. Good thing Gaetano and Vince are keeping up appearances!

You think we'll be able to get Bryan, Greg, Dave and Rob to agree on one place?

Curious, what did you do to the headers?

Hi Frankie! I bought the Kooks headers unwelded. When we attached the tubes to the flange everything lined up great except the #1 and #3 cylinder tubes would not clear the steering shaft. There's three different ways to approach this - maybe more - but this is the route we took. I was a bit concerned about the effect on HP and how it would package, but it came out really nice. I was told even though I have equal length headers, the extra inch or so added to #1 (even less for #3) would not have a noticeable effect. Look forward to catching up Bro!

I'm not into pinching myself Payton but very happy to see the vision in my head come to fruition
