sweet Jack! I have been wanting to order some defi gauges just to get some A/F readings, oil temp, and maybe water temp since I tend to overheat occasionally

so, dan@scarab's friend is working on this prototype plenum for me...he takes all the imperfections put on the inside and fills the 6 holes in the middle to achieve more air flow inside. I wanted to just polish the plenum but he was telling me about his prototype and I said, sure why not, I'll give it a shot.

Here's what he's got going so far...he just has to start working on the polishing.
