I'm thinking I should start a build thread. Guess this is it.

U will probably have to wait till spring, not putting it on the road till snows gone.. I will be running it after engine is in though so i guess i can see by that. If it blocks the exhaust sound, pretty sure it will block everyrhing else

well my head is hitting the machine shop at zzp on Wednesday so ill be bringing the motor home in 2 weeks. I added the ati super dampener crank pully so I can safely rev to 7500. should be fun. wasn't gonna get it originally cause I thought u needed the machined front cover with it, but u don't with the underdrive so I threw it in. right now I'm doing some heat wrapping the downpipe and the dump pipe and doing other heat shielding. gonna get a turbo blanket and more wrap on the way for the manifold and the rest of the down pipe, I ran out of wrap after the first section before the flex section. ill post pics later

Almost finished heat wrapping. May leave it how it is though, only really need the top section done to keep heat down for protecting oil and vac lines
New powdered valve cover. Doesnt exactly match tial red like i asked but i like it anyway. Candyapple red with metal speckel in it
