      Thank you Guys! I have a DSE front clip... waiting on a car. I was going to build a Nova, but got bit by the first gen f-body bug. a Camaro is out of my price range and a buddy has a 69 he is building, se we are going to have F-Body brothers.
      the DSE headers are a tough pill to swallow ($2300) and then the cost to coat them I think they money could be better spent elsewhere.
      I have a line on a car now I am waiting for pictures before making the drive. I will definitely start a thread when it gets going.

      Great work on the exhaust! What was the reason for opening the muffler case? Did it need to be shortened or something?

      Tom flipped the end so the outlet end of the muffler had clearance instead of hitting the chassis...necessary at times when dealing with really tight clearance exhaust work.

      I love the Whipple that is the way to go. I am running it on my car. You guys are doing really nice work, and nice parts being used on this build. Keep up the good work.
