Shane, I used a thin cutting blade on the grinder, plus a hacksaw to cut it. I cut it on the waste side of the strengthening webbing, which is why it's not totally straight, then smoothed the edges off Thumbs Up

Looking VERY good.
Can't remember did I ask you for the engine specs,..power & torque? What exhaust are you doing?
Can't wait for your first driving impressions on this beast.

One goes to the header and I think one goes to the inlet, under the plenum inlet.... I think.

Thanks Roma

Now the 2 pipes from the heater, one drops down in front of the engine, I'm sure I don't have room for that behind the alternator bracket Question
