That's where it's actually on backorder from.
Those cross supports are pretty sweet but I think they are overpriced. I think we are going to fab up our own instead.
Thanks though!

Yeah, I have looked at those also, I could make one in an afternnoon. Jason, it could be a little winter project for us, get that thing out to my shop, and we will fab up a pair. Custom fit of course, not any of these one size fit all rabbits things! We can also fab up lower front and upper rear stress bars, although with that cage you might not need the rear....

Brandon, do you have the part number for the APR head bolts? Having a hard time figuring out the correct ones?
Also trying to weigh what standalone fuel management to go with.

I think for financial reasons i'll be going turbo. Don't think it will be turbo'd by YNP however.
I'm thinking Megasquirt just because it's much cheaper but wondering if something like SDS would be better off spending the money now for the long run? Any thoughts?
Also you said you didn't get the "undercut" headbolts? What are you meaning there?
Thanks.
I have Wednesday off work this week and have deticated the whole day to tearing down the ABA and getting it ready for the 16v head! You'll definataly be getting picture updates by this upcoming weekend! YAY!!!
