sweet, you going with the rcrew header or my header, he said something about it but wasnt sure if you were going threw with it

the replica header. i needed it be cheap as possible. christmas broke me or else i would of went with the best.
all ill be needing now is mounts k pro and wiring

ya, sweet deal, i figured i had the extra cash so it helped both of us out

Should be geting the motor soon. Debating if I should make it a show queen and go all out and sand the bay down and paint it, brake line tuck and the whole clean look. Or just slap it in abd just abuse it on any track/ course.

coming along nicely, seems like its going to be a fun set up in that car for sure, have some fun with it

Either way, u should sand the bay and atleast repaint it lol

yeah i agree, you should respray it

For some reference, here is a members write-up on his K swap.
