Doug, another thing to keep in mind is that the headers and collectors aren't necessarily the lowest parts on these cars. More often than not the exhaust tubing, where the floor angles down, ends up being the lowest part, and running oval tubing under that section can help a lot.

Cris, the car is coming along nicely. I'm looking forward to seeing these billet parts!

Default Some updates!

My machine shop has been a little busy!! They claim the hoildays is tough to get parts machined

Here are some components... Flush mounted tail lights, firewall to sub-frame support bar flanges with tubes, MISC fittings for dry sump, fuel lines, power steering...
