    The Purple People Eater is looking very clean and shiny. Thanks again Blues for all the great coverage.

    Nope, it's just a pipe coming off the exhaust crossover ports, venting it to atmosphere instead of blocking it off. No crossover on the manifold. Just doing something different I guess, to make people wonder what it is. I did the same thing at the show.

    Correct. The u-fab intake doesn't use the exhaust crossover port in the heads, so you either have to block them off - or make extra exhaust pipes for them. ;)

    I’d have a very difficult time trying to pick 50 cars there I’d like to own.

    I think this is my favorite photo of the entire event. I think I may have scooped all the other photog's, even those guys that got in on set-up day with this one. Thanks Cody for being a good sport.
