saw it just matey, not sure if i had replied on it lol.
btw, what gasket are you matching the exhaust ports too? just if im right looking at it...youve matched it to the outer line of the metal ring on the ex gasket and not the actually inside one? just if done that and need take that metal ring out, you;ll be changing ex gaskets constantly

4" outrolled looks to big imo, 3" outrolled is a perfect size/style..

Hey every one, sorry but no updates, looking to start work on the car again this week, really need to get it of my lift. havent touched it for months, didnt help getting the vxr. my bro has been on with my exhaust manifold tho so al get some pics up tomorrow.
Thinking of selling it when i have it back together but wil put a standard turbo motor in it and keep my engine, as i have an old school project lined up.
