Reminds me I have to order up a couple yards of mulch. I've been a slacker living in the appt and house needs lots of love. Send some of your boys my way when they are done at your house.

Well believe it or not I have been making progress on the car but little projects like brake lines take allot of time. Today completed my test steppes 1.5-1.625 headers.. If testing goes well I will build heat exchangers around them..

Just mounted them on the run stand and my newly redone heads the one that didn't get time certed pulled the threads (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif) .. One more thing to fix.

Plan to do some rough tuning this week and likely start to prepare for the engine install. Attached Image

If the exhaust ports in the heads are 1.5", don't want sudden expansion right there.
Not sure what heads have what size ports ???

Trying to wrap up a few projects so I can mount parts as I am running out of space with my project, James conversion and the 944 .. Doors are likely a place holder until I find nicer ones at some point.. They are going to be straight. Attached Image
