looks amazing. I’ve always liked this car since the 50 trim.

2 questions though…

1. Why did you decide to make the manifold out of a mild steel rather than say stainless?

2. Won’t having an aluminum exhaust be an issue? I’m assuming that it could possibly melt, but I dont know. Possibly a cut out of some sort for track use I’m assuming?

Not hating, just wondering.
