Why not, the carpet all ready looks like you have built motors in there before

Good news

According to desktop dyno, I'll be making 475 hp @ 5500 and 525 tq @ 3500. Dunno how accurate that is, but this should be better than the old setup.

I need to snap a picture of my stock pile! It's been growing for several months. It practically covers an entire garage wall!!!!!!
Hell, I'm starting to lose the small parts. I can't seem to find my Breslin locking header bolts! Wouldn't be a big deal if they weren't $65.00!
