Sweet too bad you are not close enough to get down to my place Friday night and we could get them in before the race on Saturday.

I live close enough to Englishtown that on Saturday if we end early we could do them right afterwards...

Let me know...

whats the backbone?

Never mind - I saw that thing and to do the work you need to drop the h-pipe and cats. That is not an easy job at all. I would suspect that you would do that when you get headers done.

Barry here is the install write-up that I saw before that is why I stayed away from it until the header repalcement. The writeup is from Patches who shows great detail.

Was someone able to do this with lowering the exhaust? If so I would like to know how because then I might do it.
