I really like the LIM, that is damn sharp and looks to flow pretty good, too. I hate to go off topic drastically, but I'm curious. I see you have the K-sport coilovers and big brake kit installed, what do you think of them, as I've not seen anyone review the brake kit and have heard mixed reviews of the coilovers.

so how do you think you're going to mount the 20B, use a subframe or go with DA's mount kit?

for me i've been running acruss both possibilities but the thing i'd like to do is still be able to run a v-mount setup but the subframe kits move the motor too far forward to do that.

REvolution semi pp manifold

I've been contemplating the revolution semipp manifold and housings for some time now for a rebuild on my current motor and wanted to find out if you ever ended up using it and could comment on it or if it just ended up sitting in a box someplace. If it ended up in a box someplace, would you have any interest in possibly selling it ?

Thanks,
Heath
