Fitment is great. Only issue was I had to dremel each runner under the stud because the stock nuts and washers too big. The gasket was matched as good as it was on the oem manifold.

Thanks man. Hoping to get it tuned next week. Was planning on this week but it's been really humid and I wanna avoid that. The other thing I'm gambling with is the fuel pump. When I did the 382/397 at 29psi my IDC was at 77%. I have a DW320lph pump but it's not in the car yet and honestly I would prefer to stick with the 255. I just don't know if I'll max it out with this new setup.

Sounds pretty interesting and should do really well for auto x.

Sorry that was my silly mistake, that's what I meant. Thanks for catching that.

I'm working on it
I have been insanely busy these last few weeks and so has my tuner. He told me last thursday that he has a opening on Christmas Eve, I guess he's open for a few hours. So I may be getting tuned this Wednesday, if not it'll be the week of the new year.

Next Wednesday is the day, I have a tuning session setup up at 1pm with Tony from UMS Tuning. I can't wait, this week is gonna go by so slow. I'm still shopping around for a set of cams to add down the road. Still trying to decide between S1's and S2's. I'll report back in a week. Merry Christmas everyone.

Let me know how you like them. I am now trying to decide between the S2 and the Tomei 270. Both seem great for my setup, I just have to research if higher duration/lower lift or lower duration/higher lift would benefit me more.
