i just picked up a mani. the guy says it is a OBX, but it is a cast Aluminum. It looks simular 2 a HKS.

He was using it racing until he wrecked.

And Rails hooked me up with some 305cc's.

Know I just need to decide if I'm going bipes or staying with the MSD.

I'm not to worried about running base 14*. As long as i can keep the base 10-12. Life will be simple. Turn the key, watch the WB, TAKE MUSTANGS.

Just run the MSD for now and watch out for a used MS and get on it.

1400 posts and you still think that exhaust manifolds are made of aluminum?

Maybe it's just really cheap steel that's as light as aluminum. :giggle:

Every car maker would love to get their hands on cheap steel that's as light as aluminum.

I'm just going by what the idiot on ebay said. It isn't a OBX for sure. And it does look like a Greddy, and I had my doubts on aluminum too. But he swares he had a T25 on it.

As long as it is cast, I'm good.

If the T25 doesn't fit, my cousin has a td04-15G in the garage. I'll just rebuild it and sell it as a combo.

Thanks guys.
