    We hooked the headers up to a pair of cut outs and then hooked those into the original exhaust system we ran with the 318. We have sound clips but they’re too big to post here. It sounds great. 2.25 pipes and jegs chambered welded mufflers.

    Another project has taken place this winter. Jason had the seats reupholstered. They turned out great. And compliment the rest of the interior perfectly! Enjoy. Thanks for reading. Eric and Jason.

    If the weather stays nice like it is, hopefully next month we can get it over to our buddies shop and get the exhaust connected back up. But boy oh boy does it have some crackle. LOL

    More engine assembly pics staring Jason Lee/ Prorac2. I’m so proud of him! He assembled most of the engine himself. I just gave some occasional guidance, and fetched tools. Lol. Hey……someone has to look up torque specs. Lol. Enjoy!
