      Those headers look great painted. Can we use those photos on our website? Glad they worked out for you!

        Thanks I used the POR15 line of high heat paint they turned out nice. Absolutely feel free to use the pics you need from my thread. Great job on the headers and mounts(bough them used from a guy local that changed his mine on the swap) quality welds.

        Early next year(as funds permit) I'm going to need the 6 speed driveshaft from you guys :)

                  I don't think that's going to work... the left cylinder head covers 2/3 - 3/4 of the original brake booster hole. The entire booster hole and bolt pattern has to be moved outboard by the width of the bolt pattern.

                    Your probably right...I was going to prep and paint everything but now I think Im just going to test fit the engine first and I should be able to adjust the brake lever accordingly.. I was going to drop everything in ONCE but dont think I will find a flywheel / clutch combo for another 2 months or so.. looking for that deal so damn expensive.. :(

                        Yea Denny, sorry bro but I'm not sure that's going to work. I know your looking for a good solution to that but your about 40% finished. you maybe better off ditching the bar idea and modding the peddle box and running the full 540 brake booster design setup. It's not that bad or hard of a build.

                          You and Sir Darkness are probably right!! But one problem is I dont have the rest of the parts and figured I would go with a kind of new way... the bar idea may still work with I what I have in mind...(but of course only once I test fit the engine soon as I get my subframe bolts from garagistic) Im going to work magic on this bar setup!!;D all part of the fun...
