ok, got my manifold back today, i got the injector holes welded up, so i can grind out the big lump protruding into the runner

i think ill get the manifold sandblasted once ive done what i need to(shouldve done that before welding) and get them to touch up the left over holy bits.

Yes, GetToDaChopa raises an interesting point there..!

Any progress on the front?

And a 'courtesy photo' of the rods/block would've been nice! :p
I'm sure most of your readers (long term, and more recent :) ) would agree with me here?!
