I'm really looking forward to hearing how that header sounds. I've thought of it a few times, but I'm no fabricator. The car looks great man.

Nice work my friend! With the Air Jacks, is there a slip ring to prevent them from inadvertently lowering? I would be so scared to be under the car and one of the cylinders holding the pressure blows out and the car comes crashing down on me.~Nick~

Becuase you have 3 or 4 typically having one fail doesnt drop that corner fully. You can often pivot the cars weight by hand. They will leak before they fail. When leaky you just keep the regulator tap open a bit on the air bottle to stop the car drooping.
The big risk is, and ive seen it happen, is setting the regulator too high. When the tap opens the car literally jumps up into the air. Pretty scary.

Well......... you are definitely crazy. A breath of fresh air for cb7tuner and from Canada. You seem to be able to do it all from soldering, swaps, paint, body work, welding, fiberglass, and electrical...... and most of it done in your driveway. I'm guessing you own your own body shop and you just have tons of resources to use on your car?
The DIY Fiberglass rear lower air diffuser was nice. Takes a lot of thinking outside the box to just make that out of the blue.
Love what I'm seeing. Seems you're completing projects that take others months or years to do. And don't worry, many people look in here, just not a lot comment. Some have been seeing these mods for 10 years now so they simply don't comment when they see it again (ie - painted interior). It's the radical DIYs that always get replies these days
As I mentioned prior, subscribed! Love what i'm seeing.

Looking good, cant wait to see the air jacks in action I have always wondered about doing that always seemed so cool and would make life so much easier on a lowered car. Any chance of a clip of the way the exhaust sounds with the unequal length headers? I bet it sounds cool, I have seen another member on here with one but I don't think he ever got a sound/video clip posted of how it sounded.
