those reversed manifolds look really close to the heads, I'm having the same issue with mine. What are your plans for the coils? Will you be relocating them?
Yeah the headers are really close at the front primaries. I'm between raising them up higher and mounting them on the same point as the fuel rail brackets, or relocating them to the ac delete panel.
From your pictures I see the 7.5 rear. That isn't going to take the abuse that your motor is going to dish out for long. Any plans for an upgrade?
I would do the 8.8 upgrade. I just finished it and even after rebuilding it I only spent 250 bucks!! Great build your doing!
I was planning on going with a ford 9in or a 12 bolt if i can find one for a decent price. Hoping the 7.5 will hold up til i can get something better under her lol. Anyway, havent posted much lately, been busy and tight on cash so its going kind of slow right now. As always thanks for reading guys. Hopefully I'll have more pictures for you guys sometime soon.
Where are the headers from? They look perfect for a turbo g body and come straight forward rather than up like a manifold

If this is the same seller i bought mine from then its cheaper than when i got mine haha. But they clear the factory steering shaft. Im going to switch to a jeep shaft later tho.
