Any chance you could send that out one more time? :) I hope to finish my install today but am working without the instructions (can't find em :bb). If you could send them it would be appreciated.

IF everyone keeps this up I'm going to have to get a Super Ram too. I was leaning toward a Mini- Ram since its easier, but the harder things in life are usually more fun. Is the Super-Ram that much harder to install than the stock L-98 plenum and runners? :cheers:

thanks corvette0096 appreciate the response.

i guess (after reading the instructions) that there are no torque values on any of the fasteners though as there are none referred to!

sorry, not your fault, i realize. just accostomed to seeing torques for all fasteners and surprised when i don't see them specified.

thanks again

I think I should have bought my SR second hand.

Then someone else would have spent hours making the runner screw holes line up with the threads in the box... instead of me wasting hours doing it myself. :mad

Round two tomorrow after work - if I don't finish tomorrow night I have to can a day at the track and watch instead. :( Last time I start a job like this three days before I need the car for something. :crazy: (we need a "I'm stupid" smiley)

OK that takes care of the manifold-to-heads and if i use the shop manual for the runner-to-base, that still leaves the runner to airbox and the top cover of the airbox....
