I'm trying to sell the car...but I might just have to pick some up and keep em in the garage in case I wind up keeping it. What price are we looking at? And did anyone ever answer whether they are stainless or mild steel?

ummmm, I'll call Nick later on today and find out the set price and what type of steel it is.

BTW the list is sent to Nick at Thorleys, if anyone else wants in, just pm me your info.
There is a limit that will be made.

X2 I wanted to wait until I see the dyno results before committing, and there's always the wife factor.

I spoke to Nick today around 4:30 PM...apparently the car will have to wait until Monday for an "after headers" dyno run as they ran out of time today.

To answer a previous question, my car has a very good tune, MF system with no resonator, and intake.

Also, bear in mind that I'm not going to be able to be there so the car will be run on its current tune; "uber"-tweaking the tune with the headers on will have to wait.
