The exhaust manifold is back from shop. It is ceramic coated in titanium color. Looks great and will never discolor, which is great. The intake manifold was also painted and now installed. While trying to bleed the clutch, we determined that the clutch master was shot, as luck has it, I had a spare here so that got us going. Then we were able to fire up the beast. We have a few clean up things to do and then get the exhaust installed. Hoping to be on the road this week.
