Where in California are you located? I would love to do a little shoot and write up of the car for my friends site.

You showed this car at JCCS a few years ago right?

No style? I think it looks really cool. Those fender faires are huge! Any cars with fender faires like that automatically looks HOT! Where are those faires from?

Go here: http://www.burnsstainless.com/bundleofsnakes-2.aspx for a good explanation of how the headers work. I will post up a video soon so you can hear how it sounds.

The outer edge of the flares are the stock fiberglass parts, which I extended out by bonding ABS plastic to them, then trimming to fit the body.

I am in Duarte (near Pasadena). Send me a PM, I'd like to do a shoot. And, yes, I took the car to JCCS in '09--that was it's first time out. The car was barely together then.

I had to make my T56 adapter, because nobody was making them four years ago, but I think they are available now. I will look for the info and send you PM. I have heard that the R154 can take a lot of power--the off road guys know what to do to beef them up.
