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.

Yikes. Hope you've done some testing with porting before. You can hog part anything but that doesn't mean anything

^^ ***** ****! 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.
