Auiotour, Leif, DDV, Qbert, and Groovenerd: thanks for the replies and PMs. Groovenerd also wants to install his MSDS pipes soon, so depending on timing, there may be two CSVTs around Portland looking to do this at about the same time. I'm hoping to have my transaxle out and shipped to Mr. Haines within the next two weeks, and the headers will wait during that process. I'll check back with all of you when I've got my tranny back. Yes, air tools would be very helpful.

And MSDS plus quaife would make my butt dyno happy... enough to go to Woodburn this spring?

Qbert, did you mean Mike as in Shotwell?

If so, Mike: what's up with your other Monte project?
