I hope you don't mind some constructive criticism, but I think those exhaust tips need to be pulled into the body about two inches or so. It will give it a more refined look, instead of the 'hey, check out my aftermarket exhaust tips' look. Just a pet peeve of mine. The engine install looks great, by the way.

I understand, kinda looks ricey but when the guy was welding my exhaust thats what I decided, maybe when I re-do it with stainless steel several years down the road i'll pull them back into the groove, i've actually ran into them several times working on the car and thankfully have not bolted the hangers on or I would have some nice gashes on my shins

Every time I see this cutout picture I cry! Change it when you do the tips, I hate to see a very expensive cutout doing nothing but possibly hurting your exhaust flow.

lol I'm sorry.
I did have some fun mounting my two... I mean sets.... of air horns sunday and tonight, one is a two trumpet, and the other is a three trumpet, loud horns are your best defense against motorists who dont see you - especially when you have alot of money wrapped up into your baby. will post pics tomorrow as its late already.

ok as promised, a few days worth of stuff done pics, btw a few days = 2hours a day by the time I get home from work.

some of the pics arent final pics, ie. wires dangling etc are taken care of later
