I'd spend the time doing a P&P job instead and just paint the exterior.

Thanks lol did you notice my sawed off pool stick below it? Legend protectors...

IDK how to do a P&P :/ I plan on polishing all of the pieces or it won't look right. I'm sure that manifold is going to take a while but I think the polished look will be well worth it. Like I said, I'm still on the fence. I still have the RL manifold I might try it out on a section and see what I'm in for....

To me Tom's build, while cool, is not something out of the ordinary for him. He's a mechanic, has access to a sweet shop/tools and also one of the greatest Legend gurus around. His car is on a lift, Jen's doing this in her home garage sitting on the floor.


















Well maybe it is the bewbs!
