Re: No more hot feet, no more seeping valve covers!

We found that our original FMS shorties had a hole in each collector spike so given their age we decided to go with new ones. They came coated from Summit, but they were much shinier when new. They've quickly dulled from use. We have the side pipes coated black and header wrapped.

As for times... well the only timing I had was during Viperdays summer 2008. With the car stock as purchased from Wirewheel but w/ Nitto R2 tires I was able to run a 2:19 on VIR full.

A few weeks back running w/ NASA I got the car to a 2:11. Car has 314 rwhp vs. 196 rwhp as purchased, stiffer springs, fresh shocks, all new heim-joints, rear swaybar, and running on Hoosier R6s.
