I'll post a pic of how much I had to smash them to get them to fit, definitely a choking point for the drive side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

95riosnake Posted June 1, 2016 Report Share Posted June 1, 2016 Those things are works of art! If you do smash them, make sure you online chat with the company's customer service people and be completely unreasonable and irate because they should have known it would happen... Refuse any help they offer and call them hurtful things too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope this is from today! Yeah man totally a nice site to see this all together again. Just need a few things, nice brake lines, abs delete manifold, build the exhaust and tires. Should be able to get it done soon but still a long road ahead. 3 hours ago, GTTRacing91PGT said: Is that a portable lift? Those vertical posts really move as the car goes up. Yeah they do move as they are not anchored. It has caster bases that lift the posts off the ground so it can move around. It's not going anywhere hahaha!

I feel for you completely on the topic of having a car down for waaaaay too long lol. Hahaha the camber is so off it's ridiculous. With it being at my parents it's been more and more easy to forget it even existed. Aside from the occasional reminder from the parents it was out of mind. I'll be there this weekend watching their dogs while they are away so I ordered some goodies to get the brake lines finished (hopefully) and get the headers installed. Also, I got a new winch from work that obviously did not work (it was a return so I was not surprised) so I spent this week trying to fix that. Hopefully more progress this weekend. 8 hours ago, Blackmage said: HEY HEY!! THE MOTORS IN THE CAR!!!!! Oh hell yeah! It still fit too!

Steve-Oh Posted October 31, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2016 Got a chance over the weekend to run over to my Cousins shop and TIG weld the collector flanges on the headers. Not too bad I guess, burnt them in a little hot and had the wrong sized filler rod. [/url] [/url] Going to test fit them when I get back from Canada and hopefully get the rest of the exhaust fitted. Might have to run them bare until I get money together to have them coated but that's fine. They'll probably last long then my BBK chrome headers did.

95riosnake Posted November 1, 2016 Report Share Posted November 1, 2016 I think those welds look damn good! Jet Hot charged me $500 or $550 to coat my long tubes IIRC, in case you were considering them and weren't sure what they charge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
