damn that manifold looks great now that you painted it. makes me wanna do that to mine. can't wait to see this thing go together. is it gonna be a full track car? just wondering since your installing a cut off switch and deleting air vents and the radio.

No it won't be a full track car. I just treat it like one because some day it will be. I just need to graduate from college and get a good job first.

The motor was $300 from the local wrecking yard. It supposedly had 97k miles on it. The reason I say this is because when I pulled the head off to install the ARP headstuds, the inside of it looked brand new. The oil that was in it when I bought it was honey. This motor is a lot stronger than my old one too even in stock form.
