community is different than when I was on here in 07. But a used header with beads of weld that look to be a patch on an "expensive" header doest do it justice. Used is used, you never get full price for stuff. I just had a spec clutch new in box sell for 350. Half the price of a new one and mine was new. People are cheap and times are hard. You asking too much because it means more to you than the next guy. You could get a new header and downpipe from zzp for less than your asking. No hard feelings, just the way I see it.

Good to hear! And after I read what you said about getting the cables off it was a piece of cake. As for the carpet, the shop is 36x48 and the carpet is only a 12x12 Lol just something to lay on. Getting TRASHED with coolent, oil and trans fluid. Maybe some beer too. Oh and thanks to a local guy sam for hookin me up with the wot box, hes on here but idk his name. I decided to hold off on the progress pictures because they are only first pass clean ups and its nothing special yet.

Looks like a good flowing header however I won't be buying because:
1) I just bought a brand new catless dp
2) your dp is catted
3) wont bolt up to 2.5" catback

Yep I was talking with him this weekend actually. He got started on it Friday and sent me a few progress pictures. As far as I know all he did so far was just some minor clean up.

^^ ***** ****! Lol I kid I kid those are ******* huge. I took some before pictures with a bolt in the port, when I get the head back I will take a after picture to show the size difference. I doubt my ports will be that large though. He knows I am running a badmab header so no point in making the ports mega huge..

That was what I was thinking, I have spilled or drained oil, trans fluid, brake fluid, etc and over time I just started leaving large cardboard boxes broken down flat to absorb stuff like that. If I gets some drips and what not I just wipe it up off the concrete. I had carpet/rugs before and just couldnt keep them clean. Cardbaord is disposable; after a while I just chuck it.
