I was just looking at one of those the other day. Sure looks like it would be fun. Components look good, fitment would probably be the deal breaker.

Re: what yall think of this setup

Yep...TOO cheap. Besides, the piping included are just standard pieces you'd hafta cut to fit. Chances are, you'd still need more pieces of tubing too.

Wonder what junkyard he scored those, likely high mileage cooked bearing, turbos out of? Only to wash them down, no rebuild.

I'd like to see how you'd get those headers in an F body engine bay.

Re: what yall think of this setup

yeah looks like they'd stick through the hood.. if you read the discription though it says it comes with cast iron manifolds.. don't think the picture is what you actually get.. confusing
