The material for the headers is on the way. We have a couple things that we are going to attempt and looking at some options.
Pretty stoked on this...
On the manifold ... Hope to have a conversation today that would push it forward sooner.

Anything good come out of the conversation?

Yes.
We have Watkins Glenn next week so we need to get through that race.
After that there is a bit of a break so hopefully it can push forward.

Yes but no
Things are moving forward but I don't have any pictures ,dyno graphs or even a sketch on anything super fun and exciting....i wish I did.

All I can say is that some solid steps to move forward are happening.
The 8 hour drive to Watkins Glen had some serious discussions regarding parts....and seriously helped the time pass as its a terribly boring drive.

The headers are going to be sort of a "testing the waters"
Not everyone gets excited about sway bars and front control arms that about the most bitchin stellar performers that one could design or buy.....
But just about everyone loves MoRe PoWeR

As soon as you have a manifold ready to go make sure to let me know.

I have a feeling that with the manifold and headers, I'll be giving Kevin another sizable chunk of money.
