Well just got done with the install of the manifold last night. A lot easier that the endplate. This only took 2 hours for me to do. This includes dropping one of the manifold nuts ontop of the engine and searching for it for 20 minutes with a magnet.
The manifold on the inside tubes were honned out pretty good.But right where it meets the enginge it looked like the tubes were never touched. So I took the dremel to it and I did a little porting pollishing my self.
The torque on the fastners are very light and if you do the install be prepared to see smoke come off of the manifold almost like a leak but that was just the oils and new gaskets setting in so don't be alarmed.
So far I have not been able to see what it feels like past 60mph. but the second gear stomp on it feel of the pants feels pretty good and the shifts seem to be smoother than stock.
Well it's time to see what it will do at the track. I think I want to ge the DP for the car but I'm tossed up for that. Any way well see.
Not able to get any photos becasue once I started doing the install I was too in it to stop and take photos. Sorry..
