Cool Snooks DEFENSE!!!
Hey guys, don't expect Snook to pre-order these things until the first batch is out in the hands of our "testers" and we all have that warm and fuzzy. Until you start to read posts on these, I'd sit tight. I'll be flying up next week to look at the first batch and sample some pieces for fit and finish.

You especially need testers in states like....Texas. I mean if you think about it, with a higher ambient temperature of 110 in Austin, plus high humidity, you're looking at a wetter and hotter running engine. This needs to be...uh...tested! Yeah!!!

Seriously...Snook we'd really appreciate a thread or some sort of list we could sign up on. Even if you won't send out on that list for a LONG time at LEAST give us a list!!!

how about someone from NYC who also puts on at least 500 miles per week - that makes for the perfect test

It replaces the top plate in the picture (part of the intake manifold system.) And yes, headers replace the exisiting stock exhaust manifolds.
