Default Huge Thanks To Raptor WS6

If it wasn't for him I would not have been able to finish my Long Tube install.

He bailed my *** out. He showed up just as I was about to run out of things to do and be stuck dead in my tracks.

I went into this project without all the proper tools, having left a jack and 2 jack stands at home (zombie in the morning). As well as needing one other tool and not having the 2x4's.

He determination and perserverance helped get it done.

After some major surgery to make the dual cutout Y pipe work we got he all put together.

Oh but forgot 1 very important bolt. As I left the steering was really sloppy. Forgot I loosened it haha. the 1 bolt.

Anyway, car sounds 10 times better, and feels like the cam can breath now. Did the seat of the pants Dyno and just so happy with it finally.

Thanks Gil
Your a class act

( STROKER396 ) Glad you got it done and happy with it

( RAPTOR WS6 ) That is a stand up thing you did also. Not to many people would take there time of day to help out like that.

I'm glad you got the help you needed. I would have been there, if no one had shown up. I'm curious to hear how the dual cut-outs sound. I had fun pulling a motor out of a third gen instead.

^^^peice of cake, i had this big fear of doing my headers, but i got both sides in, in less then 10 mins, the hardest part for me was the y pipe fitment, since the new y pipe was longer. but it all worked out, motor mounts werent that hard either
