Been thinking about getting stock lights and tinting them, just not sure how to do them lol.
The grill was originaly covered in crappy black paint so i stripped it back and painted it in hyper chrome as it was realy pitted and had been damaged. heres the other pics i have of the exhaust. ![]() ![]()

Yeah i think is roughly 5.6, purchased these when in discussions with engine builder, but was a bit hasty as plans have now changed and i will be getting a 427 built in the new year so these plates will prob end up on the wall of the shed

ALS008, no sounds files as yet, once i do one and figure out how to post it will get one on here. Exhaust was done at Kangaroo Flat exhaust in Bendigo.
MICKYYYY, yeah prob looking at 30g+ to get it build and up and going properly. BTW did you run the 347 down the 1/4, if you did what times did you run?
