Can you take a pic of the rear exhaust/muffler setup? I need to put an exhaust on mine and wanted to do a dual exhaust exit like in your picture. I haven't planned it out yet though so I'm not sure if I'll do a single sideways muffler like a Dodge Neon or two small mufflers. Thanks.

Nice! Make sure you add this to the VIN registry if you haven't done so already.

Can't wait to see it running. I say keep the paint fade, etc for the sleeper look. Good find!

I think I still have a set of 1g rods if you need them. They're already packed in a flat rate box ready to go, but they still have 1g pistons on them.
