pulled the AMC 258 i6 / 4.2l head yesterday. Dropped the new 4.0 head on today and torqued down.
Done installing my new Borla cat-back. Installation is fairly straightforward. I bought it from 4wheelonline, at a good price. This exhaust is not too loud but sounds nice in 4th gear. Will post a video for the sound next time.

the drive home with 70 deg and sunshine was the high point of the year, so far.

I like the way it looks too.
The way it's constructed makes it very light weight, but it's also a little fragile. The years, and hard use have had an effect, but I think I'll be able to correct those deficiencies.
I do have lots of other pictures, but they show mostly the same thing.
I'm looking forward to when I can take a picture that includes installed doors and windows.
If there's anything in particular you want to see, I'll get the camera out for you.

any would be good. Looks like it's built like a aircraft fuselage.
I win then. Still have the hard top frozen to the driveway.

I concede.
I'm never any good at contests, but I'll bet your windshield has glass in it.
