We had a jamming pod go ballistic during takeoff, they brought us the bent up cases and asked us if we could fix them. 400+lb machined aluminum case filled with dielectric fluid. Yea right we'll get right on that.

Ah thats old news according to the dates on your pictures you did that back in 2007! lol

JK! looks good Merv! Have you drove it yet? does it feel better? I know your stock LS3 mani had to be holding the 408 back a lot!

I still have a lot to clean up on mine the pics I posted were just rough mock up since I still need to take the intake off and powder coat it....
