You have to use WCF headers, or headers that dump in the vicinity of the original 2.8 engine manifolds.

That sounds great! I think it just might be what the doc asked for!

I'll be picking up the car from Archie sometime later this week and hauling it back to New Berlin. The trip to Menasha will be Saturday. I want to break the trip in half and spend some time in the Fox Valley Saturday and running down to Rockford and then up to Menasha just wouldn't be a fun day.
Don.....we will figure something out to pick up the torque converter. I'll be running up I-43 but I'm going to try to run down there right after work one night this week. I might have to make a special trip out there to see you. Please keep an eye out here and I'll post when I'm making my run to Archie's shop.
I haven't heard from the engine guy yet about picking up the 3800 in St. Francis yet.
One step at a time!
Mark the paint guy ( and transporter )

All the bodywork looks very temporary.
Anyway, please carry on. Good luck.

You may be right, After talking with Jimmy I would bet it was a buck but, It was still crap, it was off side to side and crooked. the light pockets were not symmetrical and the raised portion of the mouth varied greatly from side. From that is what I based my comments on assuming this was to be pawned as the final piece. The deck lid is scary and a good preview of what that nose would have become, Av8fiero and I spent some time with a tape measure on it and nothing lined up or was symmetrical at all.
