That was on the car, Steve did that one. It is the same thing I had on the T/A. Just weld a plate or angle with a bolt hole in it to the body of the car. Take another peice of flat bar and drill holes stagerred for the lenght adjust. I am behind on the cars pictures. I will try and catch up this week

I went on All Pro's site and saw the 12* heads and the 12-2's but I don't see the 12-1. Do you just have the 12's and if you don't mind me asking since All Pro don't list their prices what did the intake and heads set you back roughly?

They are the regular 12* heads. I highly recomend calling and talking to Bob on the phone. He is one of the most knowledgably guys I have ever met and is VERY helpfull and friendly. Even if you dont buy anything from him you will learn something, he is a great guy.
As far as the price,,,,,, buy once cry once. I am sorry I didnt start doing business with him a long time ago.
