Form fit and function, the welds are not visible in the installed car, why divert development time to dress up the back side. I want to get these installed and see if I can approach the high 3's of maybe the first to go 400..

Its hard enough to stop polishing the top and remember that its a car, dont go too crazy.

Enjoy Woody

Woody,

I never thought I would hear you say that. Is there such a thing as "too crazy" when it comes to a car you love?

NICE WORK WOODY! I love the look. It's a shame they don't come from Rob looking like that!

I have to ask: did you level off the area where the bolts seat on the top of the mani? I can't quite tell from the pics.

Also, what would you charge to do that to mine?

Rob was nice enough to give me the originals that he had. Iam doing big mods to up the flow 40% ( my number) and decided to make them look as good as they will run, yes Bling on the cheap. THis early style does not have the Ford flat head look, i.e. flush top.

Tom as far as doing yours, I gotta ask, can you cook cause money aint worth it. You can do it and if ther is enough interest, Ill show yall how I did it ----------about 5 hours of labor with a buffer. Heck you should see my idler pulley bracket for the low speed pulley system that I developed ( showed it at the Dragon) ,which Rob is going to release soon, like a Mirror and thats Stainless steel. Hubba Hubba

After this is all working Ill probably have to swap them back to Rob for a newer set so he can copy the design and flow bench them.



Weekend Woody
