Oh HELL YEA! I would sell my V8 for scrap to get my hands on one of those! How much?
If you don't have time to do it right, when will you have time to do it over?

While I have built plenty of hot V-8s there is a certain sound that a hot four makes that just stirs the soul, unfortunately that is often lost with automobile full length exhaust systems. I've heard it many times on inline 4 bikes though.
