Sent PM asking about the headers & exhaust ... just so I could add "Greg Brown SS headers and exhaust" to my signature ;-)

Greg Do you have a stroker thread? you need a thread that detail your engines and intake designs, and oh maybe a price approximation

There are likely many variables that enter into pricing but check this out.

Awesome, thanks. I'll put that on my to save money for. It might be a little lower than that being his engine was according to Greg "ruined"
But its pretty the close to exact same thing I will be asking Greg to do, so I will just list it as is and hope that it is less (going for gas saving over power thou)



Now to decide which to get first: Greg's performance upgrade or get Paul's full leather treatment
Hard choices

Ick!!

I think that the beautiful '88 was a match for my ugly '89 as far as colors go. Sorry for the loss but glad the driver and/or everyone involved are safe. Cars are replaceable people not so much.

I completely agree.

I've seen more than just a couple of 928s that have had very major impacts.

Incredibly tough vehicles. Very impressive structure. Seem very "safe".
