you'll need the trottle body elbow....you *can* put 90 degre elbows on it an make the stock one work, but come on....

Higgi on the forum sells greddy replicas for about 100 dollars...Ive got one - decent piece.

Other than that just get some couplers and piping and go wild.

you guys in the states are lucky
meh, we've got free health care

it is a replica but you can actually buy the Greddy elbow for less than his price after shipping.

not to bag on him but the Greddy casting is smoother as well, i like promoting forum members but he should at least cut the price down some.
