Holy ****....that's horrible to hear about your last few engines.
What failed on your previous motors?
What size/type pistons are you using on this current build?

It will take me a while to explain why I went back to him but basically he covered the second one with his own money and the third one I only paid for parts. After the 3rd one went this was around the same time so did all his other ones and we realized he was full of ****.

The last one was machined and assembled by AMS (Automotive Machine and Supply) out in Fort Worth, Texas.

My car has not been running for the last 3 years and I have only owned it for 4. The last 3 years of my life have been a total and complete nightmare.

Ed, I don't want to ask how you know, but I am almost positive that you walked in on Brendan.

That's crazy! I'm going to have to call Harman and have a chat with them about this fitment issue! Its such as shame as the rest of the exhaust is very nice. Give us a call tomorrow as Brendan will be back in and we can check on everything for you.

Thanks

These are now for sale at $250 including gaskets.

One part that you guys may not see from the picture, is the double slip joint. Instead of a regular slip joint that usually leaks, we utilize a unique double slip joint. This design incorporates two sleeves on one side of the pipe, and the other side slides in between them. This ensures a tight fit with no leaks while still allowing for thermal expansion and ease of install.

The other major benefit is the fact that this pipe fits perfectly into the stock heat shield. This keeps under hood temps down, keeps spoolup consistent due to excellent heat retention, and of course keeps things looking factory and stealthy.

Thanks
-- Ed

i saw this a few weeks ago in Sac at the EQ Booth. That is a nice cross pipe no doubt! Love how it fits so nicely inside the stock heat shield
