    This congrats goes out to you man. You're a big uplifter in the carbed community, and a huge help to all of us. Way to start of this year in the right direction!

    That's got to be the cleanest living DX I've ever seen.

    Wow, that's absolutely amazing-that car does not look like it's 20 years old!

    Thanks guys

    Yeah I want to get that 4bbl running and make a new video, plus no one has heard my header yet, it might blow up my tiny camera mic.
    Just in case you haven't seen my 4bl Intake manifold...
