There will be 2 38mm gates, and attached to the back side of the manifolds.

The car would interfer with everything. LOL... The manifold would not fit into the car. Sorry all F body owners butttt Trick will only play with Trucks. I am still waiting to hear another story like the 4x4 that beat the GTO. GTO spun of coarse but a win is a win.

****, I'd buy the hot pipes right now (minus turbos and WG's) if you'd offer them for under 2 grand. I wouldnt mind slight downpipe location changes due to the different turbos I am running. I just dont want to have the truck down while I have pipes fabbed.

Course, likely by the time you decide to offer these I will have gotten my own done.

a month or 2.

I actually had it partially apart a couple weeks ago to start laying out where i wanted to put stuff with the flipped stock manifolds...couldnt get the passenger manifold off because the damn dipstick tube wouldnt come out...i was afraid I was going to break it, so I said screw it and put it back together so I could drive it. I DO NOT want to pull the oilpan off my AWD truck, and I plan to either run my turbo oil drains into the valve covers, or simply try and slowly drill the oilpan with grease on the bit and hope not to get too many shavings inside.

Looks like the power dist. block (redblock) needs to be relocated. But all in all looks like no problems. And all those large looms need to be moved. Looks like the brake line may not be in the way.
