    Spoiler... How the hell?

    True, without any spoiler it seems so sleek, almost like the wind rolls off the tail as water rolls down a cliff's edge. BTW mine is spoilerless :icon_bigg eric

    another head gasket thread..

    3 words: Permatex Spray Gasket. Coat both sides, allow to get tacky, lay on the block then lay head ontop. It's cool cuz it's red, so you can easily see the areas you sprayed. eric
