yeh didnt want it polished up from john coz when i woulda done the inlet pipes the finish might be different between polishers.... But John dropped the price for me coz it wasnt polished so that helped too!! What a champ!!!!! Corri, you gonna throw some 19s on the beast so then you can be officially sick... Btw you should replace the gates blue hose with the stainless braid one like how i will have :P Quote: Originally Posted by 1sickvl hey shane you will be at competition with the rajab brothers, word on the street is they have a killer 30/26 combo to put into the racecar after they have pushed the rb30 to the limit, still havent used methanol either Didnt you buy your sump off Bresciani anyways pete Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
