if you're going to flip the exhaust manifold, (and don't mind grinding some :) ) you can also consider the 8v gas intake manifold. cheap and easy to find

I have an A1 gasser intake i'm currently mocking up to use with my VNT15/17 combo. Had to do some grinding and welding but thats what makes this fun. The A1 intakes have the throttle on the drivers side. That should make piping a cooler easier.

good idea foxyracer, get a cooler like mine, it added like 6 or 7 mph to the top speed, it also accelerates better i think
