This is my build thread.


The intake and rails was I think $379 or 399 shipped to my door


Updated info

Ok tonight I installed the headers... I have to get a tap for 2 bolt holes. There not messed up but need to be cleaned out plus i am ****......

Cross over tube you will have to lift the motor to get it to slide in. On the 2004 the rack lines will need to be rebent cause the will not let the cross over tube connect. I am going to try to rebend it if I can not do that then I am going to get (2) male 90 degree elbows and use 6an line. This is only for the 2004's. Anyways headers fit

Plus on both side the headers have alot of clearence. Pulling them in Joel left alot of room I will get pics as I go

Who built the hot parts? I am confused as you said you built it yourself and then you said Joel left a lot of room? Just curious. Looks pretty good, hope your able to get plug wires in there without having them rest on the headers etc...
