Yes, I will be at Car Craft, Let me know where you guys are going to be, I would like to meet some locals from the site.

Its a single setup, I would like twins but my budget is limited. I wont have the car at Car Craft. The goal is to have the engine on the dyno by the end of the summer and have everything all powdercoated ready to go back into the car. The body will likely be satin black for now until all the bugs are worked out and Im satisfied with how everthing fits, since I replaced all the sheetmetal except the roof and trunk floor.

All the piping are all mandrel pieces from Jegs, mild steel, will be coated later. The manifolds are off a 05 Grand Prix 5.3. They are the same manifold, one flipped up side down. I have nothing against headers but these saved a lot of time and money. I can always upgrade later.
