always nice to get shit before you even expect it to arrive.
Have fun with the install & the madness that is the shootout. Hopeefully i'll make it there next year.
Instead this year i'll be presenting a research paper at a medical conference. ;(

Never as easy as hoped... Pretty much EVERY nut/bolt that needed to come off required a shit ton of PB Blaster and a breaker bar. Thankfully the wire to the o2 is long enough for me to get it in a place where I was able to whack the ratchet with a 2lb hammer. The guy didn't send me any hardware and stupid me thought reusing the stock gaskets would be good enough. They were until I took it for a ride. Pulled into my driveway and hear the dp/tp flange leaked a TON. Tomorrow, I got to jack the bitch up again and slap some high temp RTV on it. Hopefully that holds... Now the good part. The car fucking FLIES! Sounds good too but a little loud at low rpms under load. I'll get used to it. Hopefully the cops do too. ;)

id say get some real gaskets, im sure they wont have any specific, but if you measure from stud to stud they can get you a universal one that will work, thats what they did for my 02 housing.
