i made a guild on how to post pictures on this site.
You really should follow it instead of posting links to your myspace. I hate logging on just to see pictures and there is other people who just dont have a myspace.

I'll give him 2 days to resize, otherwise edit to just link to the pic..

Being mod doesn't mean I do extra work for others ;)

it needed a hole air filter box and no one had one for sale cuz it is the rare express that has vacume lines, and turn signals. all the express after this were a difrent body stile. so i put the K and N on there and drilled a hole trough a couple of baffales and now it is a bit peppier

Looks nice, hopefully not too lean? Do some plug chops if you can, and keep an eye on temps
