Well, sounds to me like we have a supplier of bonneville parts here. I think we're going to be real good friends.

Thanks Todd yes it has been a great job for almost five years know but on the flip side I have seen alot of cars that are still in very nice shape get crushed. One time I had to watch a 2005 harley softtail with just a scratch on it get crushed that sucked then we recycle for gm to so all the storm damaged cars from new orleans and delivery damaged cars and trucks get crushed also. totally different prospective on cars now the yard goes through roughly 1500 cars&trucks monthly WOW. since I've worked there I haven't spent over $1000.00 on any rig I know where they'll end up if not taken care of.

Thank Dan for all the good info like the threads. I would like now to install headers on my 93SSEI Yes I come across lots of parts but I'll have to keep my eyes out for aftermarket mods.Still having trouble with getting pics on ads I don't get the http thing. If I could browse it would make more since to me.

I seem to remember there are none, unless you want to make your own. I also believe the manifolds are actually quite good.
