Chris Connley (sp?) did this for stage 2 headed cars, they looked very nice. That would be a cool setup.

We're going to dyno them on Tuesday and then move towards production. Ive talked to a couple of people about making them so hopefully we'll find someone to take on the project. Realisticly, if we cant sell them for less than $1150.00 a set, I dont know that we'll ever produce them. I think thats about as much as anyone would be willing to pay and they'll be knocked off in China in about 6 weeks anyway so who is going to pay that versus $199 for a set of the chinese version?

Well I carried a car down there put it on the dyno and

It is a built 109 but the sheer pin that holds the cam back broke and bent the valves and broke a rocker in a set of GN1's... Parts are being ordered to fix it plus the Jay is fixing the car they were built on so which ever one is fixed first we will do the testing

On a side not looks like we have got the best lead yet on a manufacturer, so soon as we get the test results they are off to get done

Nice. Can't wait to get some pricing. Looks great. I've been waiting for some nice headers since mine are semi cracked in a few spots. This would be perfect!
