JohnMatt's half-assed build

Not too bad. Still having decision anxiety lol. As soon as I figure out the 100% best way i'll cut the hole and weld it. It will be done this afternoon for sure. I was pretty sick yesterday and just couldn't think straight so rather than do something i'd regret I decided to wait til today.

Wayne, that mani looks great. I can't wait to see how mine comes out.

Got me some tires. Getting rid of that CR stretched BS that was on the car when I got it. Got two 215/40 that was posted a few months ago for $36 a piece and got some 245/35s last weekend in a trade for my old manifold and DP plus $60 on his end. Good deal if I do say so myself. On with the pics

Wayne- any concerns for the weight cantilevered off the head? Now's the time to look at possible bracing... am I crazy?
I picked up set of the same tires and plan to get some 16x8s for them, so that's good to know. And yes, somebody else needs to make some 245/35s to drive the price down- those things are through the roof.

I'll make some supports for the manifold and dump tube to keep from cracking. Hopefully I'll get the toyos mounted in the next few days to see how they fit. I'm glad I didn't pay for those tires too.
