I thought my TCI came with new bolts, cant remember for sure. TCI is way beefier than that. I am not bitchin about spending $189 anymore on a flexplate anymore! I thought they just doubled the price because it is a part for a LS1

Equal length primary tubes with downpipe/ spark plug clearance. I don't have any digital pics, but I do have some reg pics of it in the car. No problems. we built them in the car, got it running. Then I pulled the motor and rebuilt it with the good parts. Thats when I took those pics. Those headers give it a very unique sound. Formula 1 sounding, even with that stubby piece of 5" just so it had something coming off the turbo. It will have 5" DP, dumping behind the front tire on pass side.

I thought you posted on Friday meaning Saturday lol. We were working all day today (Friday). We are just finishing up on TRMN8R's car. Got to take the first drive around the block, that car is going to move a bit now.



Thanks a tone 408Trans Am for the head sup on the TCI plate. Had one on order for the last week but just found out they have been backordered for a month and are a ways out. Picked up the one you linked me to and should have it by Tuesday.

Thanks
