rails came out fkn mint!! wasnt sure how theyd go powdercoated, but they look great
You weren’t sure? I was shittin bricks, just kept picturing them looking like **** or he was going to fk them up. but they turned out awesome

Bump it up to see this new manifold! /does want
haha i like teasing :)

Very very sexy. Love it mate
Thanks pal


updates:
1: i took the manifold around to my polisher. i knew the manifold is HPC coated, but was hoping to bring the shine up on it. practically what he wanted to do was strip the HPC coating and polish it from scratch, apart from it costing a fk load to polish it, the HPC coating is worth over $700+

2: ordered some -12 fittings for VPW to weld on to the rocker covers to run a catch can, but they sent me out female fittings when i needed male so im waiting for them to come in now.

3. i bought a second bonnet to get 'modified' to suit the new manifold :) sent it up today so will be awesome to see when that gets back

4: my catch can came in todays mails, and all i can say is the thing is pure sex. i love it!
