Cool - just in time to lay on a freezing cold garage floor for 6 hours trying to install them.
Speaking of which, how hard is it to remove the nuts off the old manifolds? The rear looks like a bear to get to but I'm more concerned with them being rusted on and extremely hard to turn. Any special tips for the do-it-yourselfer from those of you who have sweated and cursed this project before? "Yeah, take it to a shop", he replies. Ahh...

Message me when you wanna put these on, I'd like to see what's involved. If we can get yours on, then we can do the same to my SVT

>>I ordered my MSDS in the beginning of september and just got them 2 weeks ago, so anyone ordering them, plan on waiting 2+ months<<
Well mine just arrived Saturday, Dec. 8. I ordered them straight from MSDS on Nov 14. At the time he said it would be about mid-Dec. I was surprised to get them this quickly - about 3 1/2 weeks. Now for the fun part of installing them.
