Unfortunatly yes. AUTO only. I tried selling them before but I had some trouble because 80% of people with 5.0's all have 5spds. But hey, maybe I will get lucky this time lol

Yea, I know. Everytime I put them up for sale I get 1000pm's from all the 5spd guys but nothing from the auto guys lol I only ran them for like 600 miles and took them off. I would like to try to get a local pickup for like $375 for the LT's, Prochamber and extended 02 sensors. I still have the receipts for like $650 or something like that.

thanks. I actually just checked up on them in the garage and they are still drying. But they are looking better and better as they dry and that pic was only after the second coat. I did three.

Always use spray bottles, I have been painting parts (motor bay parts, blocks, valve covers, interior, exhaust, brackets, manifolds, etc.) for a long time now and thats just what I am used to. I have a spray gun though, just no paint to run though lol
