While I'm at it I'll post my latest engine clean-up mod. I replaced the dingy old yellow coolant reservoir with a new one. This will probably be the last mod I do until I can get the old girl to pass smog.

how did you do the painting on that? I've been wanting to do that for forever, I just have never gotten around to it. More specifically, the manifolds. Did you have to take the off or anything?

Its actually a combination of painting methods. The valve cover is powdercoated to resist the heat, the airbox cover is rattle canned with wheel paint and high temp primer, and the manifolds were just scuffed up and painted w/ high temp ceramic paint. Its only temporary until I can have my second manifold set professionally ceramic coated.

I'm just looking for weld on tips anyway, not going to spend a lot on a muffler and the whole bit just yet and i don't want to change the sound of the car in any way, i like the shape of yours and the fact that they are thick lipped with a sharp bevel

What kind of lowering did you have done and what are the measurements of the tires and wheels?
