you're right, It was a pretty amazing feeling getting it started after all that time :)

Didn't realise it was flaming at first, thought it looked pretty cool though :) Yes, new headers to go on with a new exhaust. Depending on timeline though, may pull the old one back on just to get it on the road sooner than later as it's the last thing on the list to be done.

Just trying to work out which mufflers to go with now :)

How to post pics: When writing a message, scroll down and use the "attach file" option. Where possible, a photo sharing service can be used such as Flickr, Imgur etc. The image location (usually ending in .jpg) can be copy and pasted between the ][ brackets that appear when you click the 'Img' button (you can find this button at the top of the message box).

How to post youtube vids: Click on the 'youtubeHD' button at the top of the message box and in the middle of the ][ brackets that just appeared, copy and paste everything from the youtube web address that appears after the = sign i.e if this is the url: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K2cNqaPSHv0 just copy "K2cNqaPSHv0").

Oh, should i send the new set of cherry bombs back then? :angel:

Just kidding, going to go for something more classic v8 sounding, maybe 40 / 50 series flowmasters. As i have electric cut outs i can get a free flowing system and loud sound when i want, so no need to for the tail pipes to wake the neighbors anymore :)

That was sounding strong, shame the video finished as you went through the lights. What times did it used to run & what are you aiming for now??

cheers...Nige

It used to run 10.1-10.2 with the 468 NA, aiming for low 9s with the 572 NA and high 8s with gas :? :crazy: :D
