Re: project 62

You could just buy a header kit if that's the route you wanted to go. Well, actually, I guess it would be the flanges and several prebent mandrels and a collector.

That's interesting on the brackets. I had never seen that style before. Looks cool on that TPI motor.

I'm also guessing that you are upgrading the cam seeing as to how it's hanging halfway out of the motor.

Re: project 62

Looks good Scott.

You planning on custom bowtie tailights in the roll pan or is that just doodles to see if you like the look?

Re: project 62

Well i was thinking about cutting the bowties out and putting lexan behind with lights but also thinking about the 48" LED's, (not the light bar but the real ones) Or a couple 12" one each side, so im not positive on what will look good yet
