Cool, can't wait to see it in person! Keep an eye on that filter, especailly going into the wet season...also keep an eye on the manifold area since you have that vented hood, water + cast manifold= more rust than just caused by the heat

got it done by a friend of mine that works at a body shop... first you need to jack your car up obviously, drain your oil pan, take all the bolts out and then wash your oil pan with water and soap or bleach. just make sure to rinse it well!! i say so cuz they wont weld it for you if the pan isnt clean fire hazard issue...
