You mean I gotta pack my multi meter too.

Cameron..are you happy with the induction system?.

Those throttle bodies sure look nice and compact.

Cheers

Les,

yes I am very happy with it. It looks the goods and so far, no issues.

But... this is with only a day and a half to play

Once I get a chance to really test the ranges, I will have a better opinion. I understand that it was a p$%#k of a job to get the idle right with the 8TB setup, but they have done a good job there. Nice and lumpy.

The clearance is good, about 2 inches to the underside of the hood, and they are nice and visible through the hood scoop.

Cameron,

Classy Mate! VERY CLASSY

Are planning on adding side pipes or are you happy with the underside exhaust?

NASSTY will run under car exhaust too so I'm still not convinced to get side pipes either. I like the roadster look too as pipes and stripes can lead your eye away from all those beautiful curves imho. I don't plan on having stripes either but I may have shadow stripes. I'll make a decision on that one after the painter does a mockup.

Congrats on the new girl and I'll be interested to hear reports on your 347.

Cheers

Al

Fantastic car Cameron. Looks like the wait was worth it.

Did Bryan make the trip up to drop the car off?

Cheers

Mike,

Bryan and Colin made the trip. They stayed a few days to make sure all was as it should be.

Al,

I will let you know about the 347, it's the first stroker I have owned. I will be sure to give it a workout
