v6-v8 swap update

You've researched this or pulled it out of your azz? I suspect the latter.
Worst metal as opposed to what? FRPP made in China or all other aftermarket Cies that goes there for their products.
So here's your choice: Made in China or....................Made in China!!
To your credit though, if you meant that Pypes fits like schit more often than not and have poorly engineered clamps etc... then forget my sarcasm, cause I agree.
But as far as metallurgy, the apple doesn't fall too far from the tree.

Some new updated pictures of the progress, I got the frpp manifold today, so I decided to set it up there and snap some pictures of it. I found someone who is selling some loudmouths and will keep them for me until next week. They will run me $200, which isn't bad, but if anyone runs across any with a better price let me know.

I have no offers on any of the v6 parts yet. They are still in the car, but they will be removed the 18,19,20 when I do the swap. I am located on the Outer Banks.

Well it will be very soon, the plans are to do it the 18,19,20 and I am pretty confident that I should have everything, but typically there will be something missing.
