If any of you sent me any email yesterday night or early this morning, resend it as I delted a couple by accident.

Glen, I know I saw your name in the corner of my eye when I was deleting a bunch that went to my spam folder... shoot it over again!

I see lots of red X's for the images.

I'll say though, using your budget kit suprised me in a couple ways. While I was hoping to see the uber-all twin kit, the budget kit is much more realistic. It will do a good job to show people that even your base kit performs, and while still giving you more time to work in the shop.

As always, good stuff!

Thanks Geoff. I thought (like you mentioned), people want to see what a base kit can do... and even though I have stock unported heads, it should still make for a fun car.

Go here to see the pics (under the shop car tab)

Looks good. I think a shop car is a great idea to showcase the manifold kit and what it will do.
