So, is this a kit or is this a homemade setup?

this is a kit (which was hardly a kit as i was the only one to recieve a kit, which was lacking many many parts, but the price more than made up for it)

but yes, the hot parts were made as a kit

not that it matters a whole lot in this setup… but i’d be more concerned about one the extreme length difference head vs. head. unless the psgr side manifold is a similar length and cant be seen.

but obv it works well. lol

i know what you are saying, and i thought about it as well. many fbody single setups have unproportioned lengths though due to compartment restraints. i had zero engine damage, not even a hint of detonation; when the engine was torn down for the refresh. the only thing that was bad was headgaskets, but that was for obvious reasons which should be fixed for this year, if that’s worth anything. i just dont want to look too far into something that isn’t giving me problems. dont fix what’s not broken i guess i can say
