If you don't have proof, then it doesn't have an engine. :raspberry

But I agree with Bob, just put gas in it and lets go to the dunes.

What's the year and size? 3.5L?
Not sure but the price seams to be for 1 even though the pic has the whole system. If it's the whole thing we can make it work.

Headers are special order, I think he will go stock manifolds with cheap mufflers as a temp.

Jon... I talked to the kids (Drifting guys) ...They said they use DC Sports Headers (http://www.dcsports.com/), Comptech, Tiatec. Check out TOP SPEED (http://www.topspeedauto.com/Templates/AboutUs.htm). They also mentioned, headers made for the Honda NSX (http://www.dcsports.com/3into1headersacura.html). ($$$) Was this motor out of an Honda Odyssey?

It's better to take your time and do it right the first time, than to set a deadline and regret it later. Dunes aren't going anywhere.
