its been about about 2 years on the motor, about 3 on the car.
I have to roll the motor outside for a better pic.

NICE!! I love this style manifold; I will fabricate something similar in the foreseeable future. Did you make it yourself??

Looks good Tom, keep up the good work and enjoy that manifold!

Very nice. You might want to unwrap the downpipe and ceramic coat it. I did that to my factory Star pipe and weather got under the wrap and rusted the living shit out of the pipe.

That wouldnt be a bad idea Tom.

It is galvanized steel that I used to make that, but I had it wrapped as well.
