Big cubes= big pipes. I'm surprised that the collectors aren't larger though. Murphy put 5" collectors on the headers for my truck. You been busy Frank.

He sleeps at the tree. That's why his kid drives.
Gonna try and make it over to see the beast, or maybe I'll show up at the race if I can get my kid to change water. (Irrigating terminology for you city slickers)

Re: Well the 712's going together!!!
just an up date guy's , I've been working 18 hr days on this beast,and I've had troubles trying to get this thing all together (and I had a day of crop spraying to do), so were skipping the dyno and are going to tune this beast the old school way -it's going in the car tonight and getting fired up !!! didn't have time to put the nitrous on either so she'll have to run all motor this weekend!! I'll post some pic's later
