It's a STAR kit.

Yep, amazing how much cheaper it is when you just cast a manifold without the "STAR" logo on it

Take a pic looking down at the kit.

I love the R&D that went into the fitment of that IC. Do you ever park this car in a parking lot? I hope you don't scrape the pipes off the thing. I'm not talking trash here either, you should get that thing sitting higher, or else be extreemly careful not so scrape that front end..
Found your other pics though, I do like your mani better than the star, and it looks like the fitment is a little better. Starr has shit for quality control..



I edited to the wiki!

Just because it sits a little low doesn't mean it's awful. I bet it gets the job done. I think I remember reading in corky bell that the vertical flows with more, shorter passage ways are more efficient anyways.
