No, it's just marking it's territory since it hasn't moved. Now that part of the shop belongs to the Blazer.

So tried to bake the tails over the weekend, didn't not go as planned.

When I took it off the baking sheet you see these

Then once it cooled down....

Well after the corner chipped off trying to pry after a couple more bakes I got less careful and it finally started to come out, so far have 70% or so of it seperated. Probably going to try to heat gun the rest apart

Heat gun got the last of it off but also warped it some with the prying/heat

Man these were a lot more of a pain than I had planned, especially with the running light one failing as you see it blink a couple times but should stay lit. Still trying to work out they warrantying them out as well as trying to get the connectors so they can just plug into OEM. 2 of the items I have been waiting on for 2 weeks cause they are lost in transit

Did a little work pulling the manifolds off so that I can cut them and flip them to mount the turbos
