you know it just occured to me.....i didn't need to send you that bumper sticker (you made em'. i'm sure if you wanted it, you would make one and use it

)

lsgheero · 08-22-2008, 07:09 PM

Yep

thats okay saves me some ink :P

jazzcornet · 08-23-2008, 09:17 PM

shoulda sent me your fuel rail and heat shields too

lsgheero · 08-24-2008, 02:10 AM

Jazz I thought about it but the fuel rail is just really dirty lol it cleans up nicely. The heat shield I may still send to you if you can quote me a price. Depending on the price I may just high temp the bugger.

Looks great. Mind if I ask what you paid?

lsgheero · 08-25-2008, 08:03 PM

Random_tox, I actually only paid shipping due to a sponsorship agreement with GSS. However even without the sponsorship all this would have only cost me prolly about $400-450 maybe even less. If your interested watch the gss thread under board sponsors as they usually run group buys about every few months. and with the holidays around the corner I'm sure they will have some kickass deals then too.

lsgheero · 09-21-2008, 04:12 PM

Well i didnt get the chance to clean everything yet but heres the parts installed.

jazzcornet · 09-21-2008, 04:23 PM

If that were the case we would all be lined up

jazzcornet · 09-22-2008, 03:44 PM

hey joe,

it was only $33 for him because he was sponsored by our company. he only had to pay return shipping. to replicate everything he had done, it still wouldn't be too bad. the two vave covers would be $80, the intake manifold would be $125, and the throttle bracket i'll throw in if you get the other three items done.

we can cut that total price by 66% if you do this....

OT: you really should run that PCV hose from your vavle cover to the intake, maybe just put a catch can in there.
