[ninety5fiveoh]

So I've spent the last 8 months collecting parts for my Novi 2000 build on my Bullitt and the last few weeks I've been thrashing to get it all together and get it to the tuner. Here's my pics as the build progressed...enjoy:beer:

Did your welder put the bead on the end of the aluminum pipes?

Thanks for all the compliments guys! Can't wait to get it back from Kevin! I told him I wanted a really conservative tune to make the motor last and because it's my daily driver. Can't wait to drive it!

where did u get your oval T-clamps and the connecting rubber?

It's actually a round coupler and round clamps that just take the oval shape when you tighten them down. I got them from Siliconintakes.com. Here's links to what I bought:

Silicone Couplers

T Bolt Hose Clamp

Nope that wasn't me!

Did your welder put the bead on the end of the aluminum pipes?

Most of the piping had bead rolls on them when I got them but I had to make a few modifications to some of the pipes. I just had the welder run a fat bead on the ends that didn't have bead rolls so the couplers would stay on better.

Bet it is going to sound awesome

and props for one of the best DHG on the site

haha lmao i kinda was thinking thats where u got them from..ive just been holding off from that site cause i didnt want to get bad products!! thanks for the motivation to make the purchase :beer:

Awesome Bullitt man car looks great.

I'm looking for around 400 rwhp, give or take a few. I'd gladly give 15-20 hp for drive ability. Call me crazy but I just want the car to drive like stock and cruise around nicely. I have no doubt from everything I've read that Kevin will nail the tune. As for gearing, the car has 4.10 gears. They will probably be a bit much having the blower now but I don't really plan on changing them anytime soon. 1st gear will probably be non-existent hahaha.

I was slightly tentative as well but I figured what the hell. So many people have bought couplers and piping from them that I figured it can't be that bad. I am a happy customer!

Awesome Bullitt man car looks great.

Thanks man!
