Well got the headers all wrapped up and got the 4 speed in, with a little help from my dad. My dad also shortened my hurst shifter for a shorter throw. Compared to my old exhaust manifolds and 3 speed I only have two words to say about the difference HOLY SH*T! It is out of control, when my dad stepped on it for the first time he couldn't steer it because the front end got to light and he had to back off! The motor was already cammed and had the aluminum intake on it, so I think that the headers made that much more of a difference, and don't forget about the hurst shifter, it shifts fast and hard, with the heavy duty syncros. I would like to thank all of you guys for all the help with the questions I have had with my car! I am so pumped I don't think I will be able to sleep tonight! :P
