the one in the car is not the same one. The one in the befor and after pic is dstocks one

Hey Aza, when you took off the casting marks why didn't you go the whole hog and cut off the lugs the connector harnesses bolt on to? The you just need to extend a few wires, tuck them out of the way and you have a super shiney, super clean manifold.
Just a thought,
Bill

i wouldn't have the whole thing chrome out like that though, only the two sides of it and the middle part il have painted the same blue as the a.i.m bit or even the other way around
would you consider, if i supplied you the part?
