    Holy ISH!

    Movement!

    Congrats on the wedding.

    I was a goalie 100 years ago.

    I love hockey but as a Ranger fan that takes most of the joy out of it.

          Thanks guys, we are lookng forward to it. And yeah, I'm leaning towards no badges although I would wager that very few would even no what the badge meant...

            Awesome project, I am glad to see it actually progressing. I know people have expressed disdain for the TCD log manifold, but I have always liked it. I like where it situates the turbo, and the drop in efficiency is marginal at most. Does the log have just high temp paint on it?

            Good decision on PC'ing the pan too. I was going to suggest a light color as I thought you were going to do black like the rest of your stuff, but it appears you know what is going on. I like the textured black stuff too. Just out of curiosity, what do you pay for the coating? They charge by the batch, correct?

              Thanks man, Todd at TCD had the manifold and the downpipe done in a ceramic coating that has a chrome like appearance.

              I use a guy that is local to me. His prices are not the best but he hooks me up every now and then and he's a car guy and is always interested in what I'm up to. I paid 250ish for everything that you see in this thread.

                  Good to see you moving on this again bobby. Gerrad and I stopped over last night to drop off your brake bleeder and Michelle thought we were 2 shady dudes casing your garage. She was half right

                      Spent a few hours today building a crate to send the head off to VAC. She's all packed up and nestled in the coffin to be shipped out on Friday when I'm off from work.

                            I'd stencil "Reusable Crate Do Not Destroy" on it. That's how I used to ship cylinder heads.

                              Nice crate!

                              At least that project was completed in a timely fashion!

                                Good idea, I need to do that before it goes.
